    Thanks again all for the compliments and input.

    Richard, I agree that the older we get the less we can stand the heat. When we moved to Florida almost 30 years ago we would go fishing and stay in the sun for 8 or more hours and think nothing of it. Now I run for the a/c.

    Rdobbs, if I had a barn I would probably have 10 of the little critters too. I can see how those "Crazy cat ladies with 30 cats in their apartments" get that way.

    Steve, I keep following your build and the progress looks really good. You are getting close too.

    Barb, we do exactly the same thing........we usually don't get to the shop until late PM when it starts cooling off. It is just like an oven even then, but around midnight it starts cooling off to where it feels pretty good.

    Ken, so that gene is why he is so fussy? I've never seen anyone who is so particular about everything, to the point where he drives me nuts at times. I keep pushing him to just git er done, but it's like trying to push a rope. I have to admit though that the car as it exists today is head and shoulders above what he was doing 5 years ago. He has taught himself a lot along the way.

    Steve, that is way too hot for England. Maybe Al Gore was on to something with global warming. You are correct about being able to fix shiny paint with some sanding and buffing. If you screw up with the satin you live with it. I think after seeing my 27 in satin he mainly likes the old timey look it gives........sort of like the cars in the little books used to look.

    Jim, good idea about a long sleeved shirt. At least sweat wouldn't be dripping into the paint.

    Don
