It will get the blacked out hood treatment, that will be a satin black. It also has a front valance spoiler and rear wing which will both get satin black as well. Otherwise... I think that's about it.

Dave,

Your doing this all wrong ya know. Way to long between updates. You must not have seen all of them shows where they fix a car like that in a week and give a big reveal! You are killing us here.

All kidding aside awesome work and craftsmanship on a car 99% would have said was destined for the scrap yard. Thanks for taking us along on the journey it has been a funny and informative ride speaking for myself.

I do know where any vehicle I wanted restored would be going if I had the need.

Mack

Agree. Especially because of how it was when Dave started it.

Thanks guys, nice of you to say.


I'm starting to eye this platinum pearl color as a potential improvement for the land yacht.

Coming together, can't wait to see the finished car and the happy owner.

I think the land yacht would look good, missing the belt line.

Don't forget the trailer hitch.

I guess all bad-azz cars should have them...
