    Well, we picked up our kit in Wareham two years ago to the day.

    And, we are going to the painter to pickup the car this weekend. Here are some shots of it in the paint booth, right after the color was laid down:

    Looks great. Mine is at the painters also. Looks like we have the same paint scheme. I’m in the Toledo area. Good luck finishing your car.

    Leaves have changed and falling now...was upper seventies past few weeks, but now highs are in low sixties with mid-30s overnight. Won't get to drive her this year...but will enjoy having it back if only to look at it in the garage...six months away at the painter was way too long...

    Love your red rocketship as well, that thing is Aces all the way! Very nice!

    We picked up our car from the painter this weekend....it took seven months, but they did a great job! The pearl in this paint turns it from sonic blue in the shade to electric blue in sunlight.
