Statistics prove that 'anal-gloucoma' cases increase significanlty over the weekends..... especially during the spring/summer seasons. Just tell 'em that's what the dr. said it was .

Well I did make it to work but there a few parts under my desk to detail. Been getting a little done at a time this morning waiting on work to come to my desk.

Sorry boss....I have no idea there that masking tape and chrome polish came from.

I have been reading the whole thread over the past couple of days. Your car is looking great! I admire your ability to work through the "speedbumps" as they come up. I wish I had your patients. Thos exhaust manifolds would have ended up on my nieghbors roof!
Keep it up, it's sooooo close to done! Nice work and sweet car.

I have a half acre so could not throw them that far.

Thanks for props. Its been a journey for sure but I taught myself a lot. I've owned lots of cars and worked on this or that on all of them but by far have never taken on anything like this. Some of the speed bumps sucked in the middle of the process but looking back they are just part of it. I just had to keep myself focused on what the end result would be and kept moving.

As I have mentioned before this was stage 1 of 3 steps. The motor is next and if still own it after I build my wifes 69 Firebird I will pull it apart again for body and paint.
