    Henry-

    Looks terrific! I really like that stripe too!

    I look forward to seeing some more pictures as you get her back together.

    It's got to feel good getting to this point, huh? Congratulations on the milestone, and thanks for the pictures; well done!

    Regards,

    Steve

    Ditto on the color choice and the congrats from others. Coupe has a great look; keep up the effort and it soon can match that picture in your mind.
