Thanks, I'm happy with the color, even though it does have a slight purple hue to it. I was looking for something without a purple hue, but after looking at sooo many different colors, I kind of gave up! After it was sprayed, and saw it in the sun, I felt it was a good choice, and definitely liked it.

Not having a project car in the garage took it's toll on me, oddly, I kind of felt lost. I honestly can't remember a time where I had such a long break without working on something. I got so much stuff done around the house, pretty much where I have nothing left. Well, without spending 20k anyway! Need to upgrade my kitchen for one.

I'm guessing I have about 600-800 hours left of solid work on this project, the big constraint will be money for remaining parts. Guessing about 12-15k there. My hopes are to make it to Norwalk next year, we will see. If I work 8 hours a day, for every Saturday & Sunday in a row, that's about a year, so it is possible. Not likely, but possible. I'll track my time on here, as I do stuff, will be interesting to see how it works out.
