I still have & work on my Car every weekend, it just takes time (my greatest work equals some of you guys' lowest grade work, so I've gotta work/try harder)-
I'm finally starting to head down the back straight, and hope to finish later this Year or early next (at the latest-I hope-!)-all of the mechanical, electrical, exhaust and other such stuff is finished-I know I'm doing it backa**wards, but it's coming down to Body Work, Glass and Upholstery-
Have I mentioned just how much I hate Body work? I really thought I had the Body laser straight until I started doing final Body Work-either I've gotten better at it, or some drunk guy worked on my Car-it's just soooo time consuming that it seems to take forever (!), hence why I hate it-I want to get something done-
I hope to Paint in early September or so (before it gets cold), then I'll call the Glass guy-I suspect it'll be in Upholstery Jail for 2-3 agonizing Months (hopefully less-ha!)
I'm really happy how things are turning out so far, and I think I've pretty much bought most all of the parts to finish (of course, except Upholstery), it just comes down to time-by the way-have I mentioned how much I hate Body Work?Have you ever noticed that anybody driving slower than you is an idiot, and anyone going faster than you is a maniac?

I saw last night on fb about John. The world sure lost a great one. I'm going to miss his humor, advice, and perspective from another portion of the world. Rest in Peace Johnboy.
