I don't dare throw down a time line. At first it was a couple of weeks, but then things snowballed and the car ended up in bare metal. That would be nice though.

I was able to see one at the dealership yesterday. Gotta say, the Tesla's are pretty cool cars. Not worth what they want for them, but still pretty cool. They did have a silver one on the property, but it was being prepared for delivery and they wouldn't take it out in the sun. Hate to say it, but it didn't wow me in the shop lighting. Maybe I'll get lucky and see one driving around.

I am going to swing by the dealership and see if they happen to have a Silver one I can look at out in the sunlight. Hope it isn't blinding.

FYI- it does change color when you plug it in.

Small update. Sounds like the camera took a tumble so it's Cell Phone pictures till a replacement is found. Hey...progress pics are progress pics in my book.

Nice to see the car back together for a few!

Ummm.....what happened to your avatar? That looks like a Cessna 177, not a 757. Not the same....not even close.

It's totally Pro Street Bro! It's back! lol

Not setting any dates...but my fingers are crossed that it will be ready to come home by March. Probably just jinxed it for myself.

Looking good! Does this mean all the bodywork is finished from the doors back?
