Thanks guys. I've since re-upholstered the drivers seat with new foam etc. I'm working nights(7-12's) for about 10 weeks and have been sending parts home, so in June (maybe) I can start on new goodies to upgrade the habit. The underside is really clean so I'm removing the exhaust and driveshaft and rear end, detailing the rear end and clear coat it. Wet sand the exhaust and clear coat the painted sections underneath. Replace the driveshaft with an aluminum unit FPP. Should be good.
Thanks, never be embarrassed. No matter where you go someone will be better and someone will be less better. In everything.
That's true for sure, I'm just the type that when I see something impressive like yours, the details etc, I get into it. I've been places in some of mine where people are just all over it, but I like the one 5 spaces down that might not be that biggest baddest newest, I like it because I'm a car guy and because of what I see someone has done.

I've had a lot of them through the years, multiple Fox bodies and SN95s , 3 S197s, and I'd be gob smacked looking at yours if it was parked next to my current ones at a show or cruise in.
Got the rear end glass beaded and am finishing it with KBS Coatings Diamond Clear Satin. Made the new labels to spec and have the oil based colored markers. Should look good enough.

Exactly 100% spot on. 
, not a commonly used description for sure. Just popped in my head, you may be a bit younger of a person.
