a dolly is the most dangerous method to tow anything--a log chain is probably better!!!!!!!

Yeah, I'm sure a log chain is a hell of a lot better. Too bad it's illegal.Ryan

Upholstery Photos
The trunk wasn't in the original plan, but the shop said it didn't match, so they did it anyhow. I need to touch up the paint around the edges. That's my fault, not theirs. Also, nevermind the primer on the window frams - that's on me to finish. I had absolutely nothing to do with the color or pattern choices. I asked the shop guys, and this is what they recommended. I looked at the swatches they laid out and said, "do it."

I have been working part time this summer with only an occasional Saturday to mess with the car. I consider Jerry's comments to be very detailed and valuable but I like pictures! Jack the upholstery looks great! I am still running with painted interior on the roadster doors but I do need "pockets" eventually.

Nice! And unique--that's cool! It didn't take them long either, that is a real plus.

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.
