School started back up today! It shouldn't be long before she's ready for paint!! I just ordered some stuff from UPR. When I get it, I'll add what it got for Xmas, and I'll go to see it!

Pilks, just saw you posted, '**** seems like forever'. It seems like 4 months because it has been! I'm missing it, but I know it will be nicer than I can even imagine!!

Huh since last night, I've bought this:
FR500 Steering Wheel
94-95 Simco Gauge Cluster
Black Floor Mats

So much for not spending as much since I've put it in the body shop! I've almost spent as much after I have. Going to be even nicer, now!

Where did you find the Simco gauges for 94-95? I've looked for them before and never found one that fit our years.

You have to call to order the 94-95 ones though. They just made these and they are not hooked up to their cart. $224.99 for mine. That's w/shipping! I'm supposed to get them on the 13th! I got the Classic ones.

My FR500 steering wheel was out of stock. It should ship out by tomorrow.

Went to take all of the parts I have bought, got for Xmas to it today!

Uh, while I was gone today I got my FR500 steering wheel!! It looks sweet as hell!!

Josh is my cousin who is doing the project.

Back to my car, it looked exactly the same. When I got to Josh's shop, he was not there! I saw it & got kind of discouraged! I saw what I thought my hood in the paint booth though. My car is in the same place, no surprise there though! I did see my bumpers & skirts were all ready for the paint. I saw just that they were working on it.

I sent Josh a text message to tell him I was there. He came right over. Right off the bat he started in about them knocking the small stuff out. I thought that was true. He says that they will paint my bumpers, skirts, and my 281 wing over the next 2 days! After they get that done, they will pull my car in the booth! He hopes to have it finished in 2 weeks. That's if everything goes great. When has my stuff ever gone right, though? I think it will be about a month!

That hood I saw was mine! They have painted the underside of it! It looks 1000% different than the old paint on my car looks! It is going to be better than I imagined!!

Looked overall great, after I talked to my cousin. Like always, he is coming through! See ya!!
