look what I got back from the shop!

Just got her back today. Now I just got to stuff the 3.2 back in and get everything else done and I hope to have her running by sometime in May.

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.

Thumbs up Adriatic Blue

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
