I had a very high expectation of how this thread was going to go, and that’s been surpassed! The attention to detail is next to none. I’m heavily considering getting my bolts zinc coated and this solidified the decision. Keep up the amazing work!

:mrgreen: :mrgreen: Thanks man. I happy we have been able to make such good progress in the time we have been working. You are somewhat local to NY arent you? I can give you the guys info who did mine if so. Lucky for me, his shop is less than 5 mins from my house!

Thanks mangggg.... I'm on the fence on buying brand new wheels because of the level of restoration we have gotten to, but that might chunk the bank a bit more than Im ready for just yet.

So since we are EXPO bound this weekend and returning late Sunday night, we needed to get the ol' girl ready to get loaded on the trailer to head to the body shop on Monday!

So it was clean up and tighten up time. Bagged up the loose lines, tightened down any loose bolts, bolted on the fenders, rear hatch and bumper. IT LOOKS LIKE A CAR AGAIN?!?!?! :shock: :shock: :shock:

We are super super excited to be heading out to our first Expo and to meet some of you! In exactly 24 hours we will be departing our Northeast caravan meet location to begin our trip. Safe travels to all attending and traveling!
