Well soon did not make it! but it has been going forward to some extent. I had to go thru back surgery and also got a 3rd littl princess since last post (Livia, my third with blond hair and blue eyes! What can a Dad ask 4 more!!!!)
Anyway, car has been put aside many times but now the final stretch is on, i just got it from the paint shop yesterday and man its nice!
With all that time that has been passing, i'm now thinking of maybe getting back into PT...Lol! You caould say i got my senses back somewhat.... Its too nice not to be driven and all we see in Magazines now is drivers and people having fun with their cars...What i had in mind from the start. I'm thinking of just some wheels and keep the BB for now (got an LS2 Alum Trailblazer motor down the pipe for a later TT build) but one step at a time as to not stall anymore. (Change of mind costs money and time!)
We'll see, meanwhile, here is the beast in color, hope you like it (it still needs some cutting /buffing but the big part is done, they will finish it onnce i am done piecing it back and fix what will enivitably be needed, / accidents happen you know...)
Enough bla bla, on to fun stuff;
hell staring at you...thats 3-4 hours in the car port in front of the garage (wax on floor drying) ....Think i like washing....Better get used to it i think!
At the shop;
I like the BS Apex very much...
I also started my console and some other interior parts to some degree,
I dont have a recent shot of the motor/ engine compartment but here it is before paint, i also have gone with black/ platinum hose fittings, still same but needs clean up now....
I have my new top here, its a Canvas one, man it looks incredible, cant wait to have it on. (outsourcing this too) i have a new motor for the top and hoses also. Everything new! Everything!
Hope you guy's like it!
Lead.
