All the pieces are plated, or stripped and ready for paint. A little more straightening and she will be ready for color. I approved the color over text but he insisted on mailing me that sprayed plate for final approval so I’m waiting for it to show up and then I guess we will be in it past the tipping point.

Just because I like the way it looks with the blue I am going to black the grille out like the GTO and Lemans
