			Sure is a beautiful piece of work. Hopefully you will come to Barber Daves' meet in Ohio. It's a nice drive from Ft. Wayne to Maumee. Part of it along the river if you come that way. Hope to see you there.

			Wouldn't a nice PINKISH PERIWINKLE have been a better color?

			Since I have have had about 10 people tell me that I am a jerk so far today (unrelated to this), I want to clarify: I made the Periwinkle comment as a joke because I think the car looks absolutely fantastic. It was a teasing poke because it was so obviously a great color on a great car. I'll send a $100 bill to anyone who says something nice to me today.

			Ooo that's purdy.  Jealous I am, as I'm still rubbing and wet-sanding my mess.  I hope mine looks as nice as that when I'm done! Curious also - in the first pic, your nicely painted roof appears to have a chrome / polished rail above the window seal - is it in fact a swank piece that can be purchased? Cheers, Jeff
