All it needs now is garage doors, down spouts, some trim paint and a final inspection.

Stretching for the finish line. Garage doors are in and operational.

The three door look matches the three arches on the front of the house. I wish they were a little wider, but considering everything, I'm really please with how it turned out.
The approaches will be gravel for the time being, but will eventually be asphalt.Wes

Well end of an era for me, the 57 is on it's way to a new home. It went to a friend locally. On the one hand I loved looking at it and driving it, on the other hand, seeing it every time I went out...
