Here's wishing the juice is worth the squeeze !

I wonder if being done, your left with a hole in your life where worrying/planning/thinking about the car no longer occupies your head.

Well no matter this is a huge milestone congratulations !

Thanks!! I've thought about the "whole what am I going to do now" thing. The wife has went along on this journey and has been more than supportive, so it will be time to return the favor.

Give & take. The way good relationships should be. Kudos for that....

Well, been forever since I updated this thread. Life has been a little nuts with work, moved, kids, and still trying to push along this bucket of bolts. Car is making some serious strides at the interior shop. As you will see in the pics. He is working on the back seats and package tray right now. Those will be wrapped up by the weekend. Seats will be tan with maybe some black accents. We will wait and what the car tells us. Then the front seats and carpet. He is doing an amazing job!

The front speaker enclosure houses HEX Diamond Audio Separates and Crossover. We are going to make new speaker grills that will be flush mounted.

You can see in the B pillar I installed 3 point belts. All of the window trim will be painted satin black to match the leather.

The AC vents will be going across the mid section of the dash. Having a panel made that will house these vents.

AC Control mounted just in front of the shifter

The Power window switches will be mounted under the lip of the console. The holes in front are for the ignition and headlight switches.
