I don't know what I'm going to do once you guys finish that car too! Your GP isn't that bad off, Jack is about done with his, Blake is pretty much topped his off.... Donovan keeps me busy with both of his builds, but I'm nowhere close to the same skillset that he has (and the patience you have lol)...
😳guess I'll have to work on my own...... lol

Jared,
Thank you. I try to be supportive whenever I can.
I agree with you buddy. Great bunch of guys on this forum...no hostility...an occasional disagreement, but that's what a forum is all about...always learning new techniques, being able to voice your opinion, etc. This is by far the best forum I've ever been part of.
Darrin,
You need to make some progress on yours. We're all here to help support you....😉 not monetarily...but at least verbally.
it'll get there Jack the, GP has taken most of my time
... watch for a thread on it soon, and hopefully soon the Regal will be back in the thick of it!

Wow, another great build, and painting it black? Wow, y'all got skills!
Of course seeing someone shooting primer makes me sad, I was going to do that this weekend but found excuses to not do it. 🙄

Car looks great I can't wait to get one of mine in primer
I won't get back on mine until the fall so I'll be posting stuff well into next year. Donovan's got a ways to go on the Juggernaut so I don't think you are in danger of running out of something to read on here. There are lots of good builds I like to follow. Besides, the Camaro is not finished. It's come a long way but there is still plenty of work to be done.
Thanks! We're going to have the same guy that painted the Camaro do the final blocking and paint dad's car. Dad made the decision to paint it black a long time ago (early 90's). Black us unforgiving. Hopefully we are happy with it when it's done.
You'll get there. It's a great milestone. It has to be tough to have three cars you are building, but there is only one of you. At least with us, sure it's three cars, but there's three of us.
Small update. Sean and I got the second toploader torn down. We'll work on cleaning up the main case tomorrow night. Dad wants all of the blue paint off for the factory correct as-cast look. It will be fun time with mineral spirits and wire wheels!

I think it's awesome that you got another part into production for an old car like the Galaxie. Quality reproduction parts can be hard or impossible to find sometimes. Does the approach you used work with other manufacturers? Maybe if some of us G body guys started talking to some of these parts manufacturers we could get some more parts reproduced.
Every time I see that Galaxie it looks better than the last. You guys are doing great work.
