Looking good! I'll stop up and take a closer look. Definitely a big difference since the last time I saw it.

For the benefit of all 65 restorers, What was your total investment including puchase price. Mine was 45-50K

Tony all looks great !!!

Question ... was it easy to cover the seats yourself?? Did you add padding or the repo seat foams? Or did you put the cotton batting in them??? Burlap?

Thanks
Eric
