I love the Marquez tail lights! Just beautiful! Thanks Pascual for all the support with this project! I can't wait to unbox all the other parts!


Speaking of parts! We had so many boxes of parts that Greg moved his truck over to the trailer so we could quickly get them to the garage! Thanks GW!! And it helped get to unloading the car that much faster!

Greg, thanks for taking and uploading the vid so fast! And for coming all the way down to Oregon to share in the excitement! Tell Rudy he was a huge help too! That was more than scary and you captured it perfectly! Glad that's over!

Enjoy!

Jim, the driver, has huge tallent! Trust me when I say it wasn't easy getting this BIG RIG to my house! What you can't see is all the tight turns and dead ends involved! I like being tucked back in the neighborhood...but not so good for days like this!

Mike -- I can tell you it might have been fun to watch NOW.... but I was truly concerned for the guys and the car.... So much can go wrong so quickly in those situations. I'm glad I was asked to move my truck -- and by the time I got parked and out - they were doing the "up elevator" on the lift gate. That's my brother in law (Rudy) up there helping, and my sister would kick my short little azzzzzz should I bring him back busted up! But it all worked out.

I wanted to thank Pete, Mario, and all involved that helped get our project back on track! You all are the best! The car looks amazing! We are totally stoked! I love the colors, it's exactly what I wanted! I love the modded stripe too! The whole package works! I was going for a timeless and classy look...I feel we really nailed it!

Also, thanks to everyone that showed up today! We had a good time seeing all of you again...and you can tell from GW's video that we needed everyone that showed up to safely get the car from the truck to the garage! Big thanks guys!

I'm still a little in shock that my car is in the garage! It basically hasn't been out there for 3 years! Well, it was home for a couple months in the last 3 years....but you get the idea!

Looks like it's time to start the next chapter! Assembly time!!

Thanks again everyone! We couldn't have done it without you all!

Tony -- quit typing and get your butt out in the garage and start installing stuff!
