Hey Deano, no problem with bringing the missus' car here for a wash. Probably need another wash by the time you got it home though :-) Chassis, suspension and brakes are done. All the bodywork on the underside of the body is done and painted. Last week flipped the body back over and put it on the chassis. Doing panel gaps and filling and sanding and filling and sanding to try to get the body straight. A long way to go.

thanks Jon for the encouragement. You are a man of fine taste, with a Cobra and a 59 Corvette. I have a huge soft spot for early Corvettes and have thought about doing a restoration on one when I retire. Good news is my wife loves them too.

Post Coro shed run?

thanks guys for the encouragement.
Yes, I am doing the body and paint myself.
I have done all of the body repairs, alignment and panel gaps.
There was a lot more bodywork required than I expected, but it sure beats doing rust repairs.

I have started the first stage of primer/sealer. Still a long way to go...
