    Yay, progress! I see you got the box from chip.He had back surgery & was moving pretty slow,lucky we got it done when we did.When i talked to him he was in some pain,only working a couple hours a day.
    Interior plans,bench seat with headrest's & center armrest from '72 cutlass,in a dark/medium -brown/tan to complement the burnished saddle paint & sandalwood top,something inbetween the two colors.Waiting for Mikes new interior guy to look at it.Scott Brown should have the cam on it's way to Eric by now,so the motor should be coming together soon:beer
    Thanks Mike!!!:laugh:

    All I can say is that I am very jealous! Awesome car. I hope you are going to bring it to the big Puyallup show next year. Don't make me go from the Southwest corner of the state to the Northeast corner to see it!

    Better by far than any new car. Great job on the restoration.

    Jamie, I got to see your car in person Thursday and I looks great. I never thought I would like a brown car but the color you have has changed my mind. :) I looks great on your car.
