    It got a little rushed at the end there before the wedding, so things like wiring, and interior need a little more work. Despite that and a failing hydro, she made to the wedding and back!!

    I started working on the car around september, with the goal of it being our getaway car for the wedding and I did it... With tons of help from my friends, I never would have made it if not for them.

    **Last pic showing the skirts that my friends stole from me the day before the wedding and bodyworked and painted them to surprise me!**

    Yeah I'm with you!!:D I love the fact you didn't go with primer and "custom" work. I love the cleanliness of the stock look. What a breath of fresh air!

    Congrats on the wedding. I hear it's a big step in life that only brave people are willing to do.

    I'm thrilled with being a fraidy cat.:D

    A big congrats! Having the heart and p***ion to work on the car that hard during a time of stress and excitement and still succeed so well. A big High-5 from a married guy over the hill in SJ. What a great gift! My wife would have wanted a 67' Camero. But i won't let that happen. The wedding pics look great.
