    Thanks for all the compliments...Its been two years to get here. I've tried to use as many vendors as I can from this board in terms of having all the parts reconditioned or replaced if needed. The paint is just amazing. Automotive Restorations in Stratford CT. Great place, great People and great work. https://www.automotiverestorations.com. They have really gone out the way on the Paint. As we all know, it takes time.... Shaun at Tru-6 did all the chrome on the doors and its a sight to behold. Lots of others have done great work also.
