If you look carefully at that last picture you can see Donnie's stool. . . . . ewwwwwww.

The car looks great though.

Damn, now I wish I was doing a different color on my wagon's roof. Donnie, ya make me sick everytime I see something on here you've done!

 

Nice work Donnie, nice work...

 

Nope, no bags yet - but believe me, whenever I get pics they'll be up ASAP!

Well, I went out and visited the ol' girl on Saturday... looks even better in person!!

Donnie had talked about getting her out in the sun for some shots on Sunday, but I'm not sure whether that happened or not...

Should be goin' for the 'bags this week!

Longroof

 

actually i did . BUT .... i left the camera at the shop .... i will send em to ya tomorrow when i get home .....it's ready for them to come get it as well ...

 

this makes me want to get to work on my 62 cad, ive had it for 6 years and its still bone stock.

 

UPDATE!!

Actually, not so much an update as more pics of the roof... but I finally got the pics in the sun to work, so here ya go!

 

WOW, pretty!


Nice work.

 

Amazing, just amazing work

 

Hi Donnie!

That's bitchin.

 

Hi Donnie!

That's bitchin.

 

Dude, love 61, 62 Cads. Yours is sweet and it looks great with that roof. Congrats. Looking forward to update pics along the way.

 

This is when I wish My 61 drop top had a sister with a hard top!

Very nice!

Does it get a shave with the new bags?

 

That color combo is spectacular. Good Choice.

 

Longroof,

when you get a chance, post a pic of the entire side of the car from a bit more distance. the roof looks amazing. i want to see the whole picture to see how it blends together across the whole car.

my old '62 was also bagged, and looking at your pics make me miss it. you're going to dig the car. get it done and drive it.

If I had a pic like that, I'd post it... if I had the car, I'd take a pic like that and post it... problem is, it's still in SoCal and I'm still in Scottsdale... hopefully the 'bags'll be done soon -- at that point, I'll be a pic-taking madman, every angle, every nook and cranny, etc etc...

No problem on the driving it, when it's done, it'll share daily-driver duties with my Merc...

Longroof

 

Nope, no shave... everything else remains the same from the beltline down after 'bags and Supremes... and then it's just driving driving driving... with an ear to ear grin!

Longroof

 

Oooh oooh oooh!

Guess what? I finally have her back! As soon as they're downloaded and I can get 'em resized, I'll post 'em up!!

I saw yer ride in Mike's shop right before 'Paso. I digged the paint color that you and Donnie picked out for the top. I missed the show but was able to see yer caddy. I am looking at getting a '62-'64 for my lady to drive. KNUX!

 

Alrighty, here's the side shot...
