Is that your car?     Love me some EV2!!!!!   

[Claudia]

Cody, yes this is my car. 
I also loved the EV2 at first but after staring at it for three years now . . . maybe not so much for me anymore.

What's the next step in your restoration?   Normally getting through paint is the hardest part for people.  It's all downhill from there.

You changed it to blue?  Blue is a good color too  Was it originally EV2?

I am already through the paint process thankfully!  I will add additional pictures.  Just thought this was a good place to track my build.  I already have the engine in and the exterior almost complete.  Just now starting the interior!

Cody, yes I changed it to blue even though it was an original EV2 car.

When I'm at the point you are in a restoration I get real excited.     Paint's done and pretty much just interior left to do.  The blue turned out awesome!  Not sure I could change an EV2 to B5 blue, but it's really hard to beat either of those colors.  Maybe FC7 would beat them, but any of those colors are the tops in my book.

Thanks for sharing photos.
