Here's my 67 convertible as purchased in 2011 , and as today when top installed.

It's been a long time coming, but worth the work.

I'm right there with you, brother! Here's my before picture:

Here's the current picture:

Three years and so far I've done nothing but change the tires and wheels. And fix all the leaks which was everything on the car that involved a liquid. However, the 8-3/4 was buttoned up yesterday, the new short block is together, and the rest of the engine should be assembled in a couple of weeks. There is a change in the works!
