    Come on Jon, Where are the pictures. Until we see finished pictures I am telling everyone you just photoshopped some color on it.

    I need to get another camera first. And paint the doors and grill. There will be plenty of cameras at the Pileup, I'm sure.

    Looks good John...Is this the piant you originally decided on? I thought you said it came out a little darker than you wanted...I like it.

    Well I guess I missed the post, but I guess it doesn't really matter since you called me during my nap time to tell me the news.

    You know, I don't know any better "shakedown" run than to drive it down to Shelburn for a hand job from Miss Kitty. Give her my regards while you are there. Also remember to crank the fist one off yourself before you go, don't let her get the easy one, she needs to earn that 5 dollars......

    I'm riding with you to Bonneville next year.

    Looks cool. Tough to make a T sedan look cool and you've done that.

    Ohhhhh Larry, you east coast guys are out of the loop. This cats got bitches makin' road trips to "shift his lever"

    I wish I could be at the pileup for your triumphant entrance. Alas' I will be at home dancing a hole in the floor at a wedding reception.

    Painted the doors last night. Sorry about the small pics, my computer died and this one doesn't have Photoshop on it.

    Now I am in the process of smearing some bondo on the grill shell and my clothing. Gotta paint the grill, headlights and tailight stands. I'm almost out of paint, so we'll see what happens. Might be black headlights for a while.

    If Abba were still together, they would write a song about you and your chariot.

    PS
    FBLC had an emergency meeting and we decided to keep you in the club even though you have a running, driving car.

    Not so much a chariot as a donkey cart.

    I would be nothing without the Fruity Butts, thank you for keeping me. If it's any consolation to the other members of FBLC, the car will probably never be completely finished. I'll throw in a neon underbody kit and a shift knob carved in the likeness of Ricky Martin, if that would help.
