Very cool!  You are seriously almost done.  When is the planned first drive?

Maybe yet this summer / fall.  :fingerscrossed:
If not then it will have to be next year.

The interior cleaned up nicely.  You are so close to being done.   :yes:  Make a push to get her on the road this year.    :bigthumb:  Going to be a big day to drive it for the first time.  Nervous, excited, cautious and so many other feelings all at once.  It's hard to describe the feeling of driving a car for the first time after you restore it.  Something a person has to feel to fully understand it.  Everyone who restores a car joins a special group of people that gets to feel those feelings.

Very nice work and car!

Looks like you painted it in your own garage.  What kind of pseudo paint booth did you make?

Thank you!  Yes, I did paint the car in my garage.  I didn't us anything special, just hung up some tacky plastic on the walls, wet the floor down, turned on a floor fan and went to town.
