Before you know it they’ll be on the car. Today we made another step towards completion, all parts are painted except for the front valance now. Below are the pics of the preparation this morning, the movies of the painting are being converted right now and will be on line soon.

After a little while she is finally back home 🕶 We took her to the shop 2008-11-29 and just got her home again. But it has been worth the waiting and money, a great job done by the shop. Now it is time to put her back together again, only 35 days left before inspection 😆

The front is starting to look like it. No better pictures for now 😠 we wanted to drive the car to a nearby location and the minute we opened the door it started to rain after about 7 days without a drop of rain 😈

The exterior will be ready next weekend and on May 5th the car will go back to the shop for final inspection and finishing. There are a few minor blemishes that they will take care of.
