    Cool Paint Is Finished!!: Another quick paint update - Jeff Miller

    Jeff sent this picture today. It's back on the chassis!



    I'll have a few more pics to add once it's on its feet again and has the windshield mounted. I'll be calling to get a shipping window in the morning.

    It will be home soon! Then it will be a sprint to the end with wheel well, radiator, and door sill sheet metal, lights, and a few other odds and ends to go. Luckily, I've got a long driving season, so I'm hoping to see it road legal and graduated in the next few months! Thanks for your work, Jeff Miller!

    The distance between "finished" and finished is literally infinite.
