Bill,
I've gained much inspiration from your build. Please don't stop now. There would be many others on this forum, like me, looking forward to your progress reports. The finish is in sight. Stick with it. Cheers Glen |
Bill please say it isn't so! I have followed your build from the start and simply put you have amazed me time and time again. You are so close to your dream please reconsider I know when you post your first ride the HUGE SMILE that's going to be on your face will be worth it!

The painter has started working on my car after sitting in his shop since March 2020. He has fitted the doors with the correct spacers I forgot to send him, bonded the inner and outer hood panels, opened the scoop, and attached the hood

Bill,
Glad to see that things are moving forward. The good weather will be upon you by the time that the car is ready. Good luck, and can't wait to see the finished product. Take care. Jim |

I was pondering adding vents and drew them to see how they might look. I’ve abandoned the idea

Good to see you making progress, Bill.

Bill,
Looks great!! Can't wait to see it painted. Your long haul is almost over! Keep the pictures coming. Jim |
Big milestone Bill! Keep up the supply of pictures :)
You might recall.... my car's body is a Bruce Chervenak body as well ....so our cars have an 'accurate connection' Cheers! Glen |

I used 1/2 inch half ovals, contoured and filed, then sanded to give a satin finish, then epoxied to the aluminum panel. Lots of tedious work.

|
Wow, that will look really nice Bill!
|
That's a great red, Bill. The body will be....Viking Blue?
Cheers! Glen |
It will be close to Viking blue
