I arrived at my house about 4:00 pm on friday, I had the first beer at 4:02. sat in a lawn chair by myself for an hour and just looked at it. Silly, I know, but at least I was not sitting on a bucket inside making car noises.

Great news! You should be done in no time now. What a cool feeling to have the kids around while your finishing the car.

And BTW: Nice House

Payton, you NEED to sit on a bucket and make car noises, it's part of the experience! If you don't have a bucket, substituting with one of the seats will work, but that really detracts from the event in my opinion.

Kids look stoked, that is a great picture!!! Car's looking good, that yellow really pops in the sun, looks great. Now get it done and drive her!!!!!

Congrat's!

Looks awesome! I bet it was more than worth the wait though.

Have no fear...sit in the car and make noises. Push it on a hill and jump in...just hope it has brakes!
