My plan for the last year was to attend the Boston World of Wheels as the cars debut. I have been working hard and am so close it isn;t funny. The car is ready, but I'm not sure I am. Set up is this coming Thursday, and thankfully I have awesome friends that have volunteered to get the car there and set it as well as my display up. Also repeat the same Sunday night to break it all down. This is two hours form my home, so its a lot to ask of friends.

My issue, is my health. I am having breathing/lung related issues for months now. I was just diagnosed with pneumonia for the third time in 3 months, and the fourth time since October! I have barely enough energy to walk from one end of my house to another without running out of breath. So, while I could get the car there, I'm not sure I could handle the show physically. I am so mentally bummed right now. I am going to give it until Monday afternoon before making the ultimate decision to pull out of the event, call the promotor and cancel hotel rooms. I am now on my 4th round of Prednisone and antibiotics since January 1st, and the 6th round since mid October! Doc doesn't seem to have a clue, and I am so sick and tired of being sick and tired.

In between these bouts is when I have had time to do some of these small details, but this last week or so has been nearly impossible. It took me two hours just to bolt these panels in for a lack of energy. And yet I am normally a healthy gym going just turned 49 year old. Unreal.



Well, here are the closeout panels fully installed. I'm very happy with the fit, finish and overall look of them. Exactly what I was hoping/expecting them to be.
