More Pictures
Since the car has returned to my garage, I've added a few odd and ends to help finish it off. Things like exterior and interior badges, floor mats, interior door panels and a nice chrome fire extinguisher. Leslie says there's nothing more reassuring than strapping yourself into a car that comes with a fire extinguisher. I think I sensed sarcasm in her voice. I still need to calibrate the gauges, but I can't do that until I can get it out on the open road. And I can't do that until I get the paperwork back from the state in a few weeks. So for now, here are some more pictures.

Finally!!!
Well, the day finally came yesterday when I was able to drive up to North Carolina to pick up the finished car! Brad and I have already assembled a "to do" list of future projects to improve or finish up little odds and ends, but for all practical purposes it's finished. Now I'm waiting on the title to show up (two to three weeks....aaaahhhh) so I can start the process of getting it tagged in Georgia. In the meantime, it will have to sit in the garage and taunt me.

Coming Soon!!
Brad and I have been informed that the car is now finished. We have not seen any completed pictures yet, but have been told that it looks fantastic!! Based on other completed cars I've seen from the same shop, I have no reason to believe it will look anything but perfect. I am making the long 6 hour drive up to Greensboro this Saturday to pick it up. Watch for pictures soon!!
