Between getting & disassembling the Astre there hasn't been much done to the TA.

Well, he's back at it. He made all the panels for the door jams since they don't make full skins. I must say he has a knack! He is super picky so I'm sure that has a lot to do with it. The right side is pretty much done, other than whatever that note hanging says, lol.

Thanks, I'll pass it on

Since it was nice out & my Dad's car could go outside he jumped to the left side. There was one snag when he found another hole in under the rear seat and into the wheelwell. Got it covered and will move on next weekend. It's getting closer

Back to work again, YEAH

Jory worked on my Dad's Judge in the morning and then after lunch we had to play "car hockey" as Daddy calls it. My TA was at the door so it was blocking a spot. We had to move it to the back of the barn. Which turned out good because there's more room and much more light!! And the car next to it that could get crap on it is mine also
So without a whole lot of time he got started.
p.s. see it's not all bad

Boy, I'd love to have a place like that to work in.
Is that a lighted GTO sign on the wall in pic 2 or is that a flash refection? Either way, where'd your Dad get something like that?

Hi Greg,
Me too, to own that is The only problem is he didn't build it high enough for a lift.
It's just a reflection but it is a pretty cool sign! He was president of the GTO association of PA years ago, he had a picnic at his house and had the sign there. He's still a member so I guess he's just holding the sign for the club. I'm not sure who made it. I can ask if you want.

No Stacy, you told me enough with that. It just occurred to me that any sign shop could probably make that on vinyl any size you want.
