Long time coming. It still needs to be rubbed out, but we're getting closer.

Looking good what colour code is that I like it :)
Sometimes I get to feeling that if Xmas, Fathers Day and my Birthday did not exist, then aftershave too would not exist.

Thanks to Bruce, this is what it will look like. :D The shop we are using now is doing all of the reassembly. I will have the pinstripe painted on when I get it home.

Also, here are a couple of pics of the restored seat belts. I got them back this week and Bill Edwards restored them beautifully for a fraction of the cost of Snakeoyl. I sent them to him on a monday and he shipped them back to me the following monday. His email is beewagon69@yahoo.com if anyone is interested.

Looks great Ryan. I was just thinking I hadn't heard from you in awhile and was wondering how the resto was coming along.
