I went to pick up some of my parts today. I stopped by the body shop and they haven't started yet. I got my heads back from the machine shop and they look awesome. My 4 speed is all rebuilt with a Brewers kit. Here are some pics.
Progress..Progress ... Great !!

Yeah, I am excited it is going to be completely restored everything is going to be gone through. $9500-10,000 or so for paint and body work. Ugg

I am sending my rear panel out to be re anodized and then I will repaint it. It is already really nice but I think it will look old after everything is painted and looking new.

Japanese are so nice, we had 19 servings of sushi including Clam miso soup for less than $25. Heading to Germany in a couple of days. Has Phil started working on your car yet?
We will put your motor together when I get back and hopefully the paint will be on the car by that time.

That sounds great. Have fun. Not sure but he hadn't started the last time I stopped by. Yeah it will be nice to have the motor built. I sold the old seats last night for $400 to a guy on here. Nice guy. I also threw in the old 4 speed carpet. He is going to dye it and put it in his car.

I bought the 4 speed parts I needed for $60 free shipping on ebay. I also sold the grill.

Hey, just curious. What are you painting the block blue? Also, who are you using to get that finish panel done?

The engine will be stock Turquoise. My friend brought the finish panel to a guy he knows in Palo Alto. I can ask who the guy is. It is pretty expensive.

Tail panel is back from repair and off for anodizing. I checked on my car today and it was barely started. I talk to the body shop owner and he said July he will start and hopefully be done by the end of July.
