And you've done this since Tuesday? 
Since Tuesday, I got a new battery in my 67 and moved my $3200 Saber wheels for the 87 from the shop back into the basement so they don't get stolen. Been a few homes out here in the sticks where we live getting shops broken into lately.
Seriously, don't know how you do it all but looking good as usual. Some of that clean up - fix crap reminds me of how my 87 showed up new when I got it? Unbelievable the stuff they let ship . . .

As always, thanks very much Kevin!
Say, for a guy that wasn’t sure he was going to be able to follow this thread, you’re doing pretty good!

While the jury’s still out on whether or not she’s a “lady”, I can comment on the term “flow indicator”.
It’s just fancy pants painter speak for “my dumb *ss got too greedy in trying to get the glossiest finish, and put too much material on!”

Yep, all that done since the last update, which I guess was Tuesday. I’ve got myself on a pretty aggressive self imposed schedule now that it has primer on it if I wanna have it on the road come spring...
Funny thing is, I’m not really logging in any more hours on it than I have been for the past 8 months. It’s just that it’s to the point where the work getting done is a lot more visible and rewarding and therefore just seems like more!

You really do produce some incredible work. I have no skill in the body and paint area of our hobby and could only hope to produce a similar caliber of work/skill on the mechanical end where I play. My hat is off to you sir.

as always, top shelf job on things the average person wouldn't justify. glad to see things are moving a little smoother, now that the big jobs are done. I had a bit of a setback on the GP lately, but seeing your progress is giving me the energy to brush it off and dive back in...
again, beautiful work, and look forward to the next updates!
