    Flop is knocking this one out in a big hurry for me since I've decided to try to have this one done by the Detroit Autorama.

    The old quarters are definitely salvageable and not really that bad, but with the tight time schedule we are on, we decided to go with the United Pacific quarters. The old ones are for sale.

    I'm back home cranking on the chassis while Flop is working his magic on the body.

    If flop and jimsibley were to team up on this, would it bend time and space enough that they would be done before they start? :)
