The car is 99.9% complete. Just finished installing the AC parts and got the hood back on. Too bad there's so much snow on the ground

Its not my favorite color either (marina blue is) but its really grown on me. Glad that I stuck with the original color. In spring it gets a wet sand and buff and then will really pop.

Love it - especially those hard to find front grilles!!!!! Did you buy the car with those grilles, or did you buy them and replace? Simply stunning!

Now, it's just TOO NICE to drive on the road. Better start looking at enclosed trailers.

You might want to get a pro photographer to do a complete set for the car...before being driven. Going for an NCRS award?
