Progress on 73 VGE - Kermit

[larry47us]

Well, it's been a bit since I posted pix and my long story of the progress on my car. Things have been delayed a bit. Complications with many little details. I have been told by Paul (pwd72s) that restorations always take twice as long and cost twice as much as planned. Well, I feel like I am joining Chris (yopurp) in the long wait. But we are finally at a point of getting green painted, which is helping my spirits.

The longest part of this is that my fabric guy has kind of fallen down on the job. He found the yarn we needed, and sent it to the dye house. The problem was that he never told the dye house to rush it - so they ordered the special color fast black I wanted - by slow boat - and then they shut down on July 4th for two weeks. That really threw a monkey wrench into the works. The fabric is likely not going to be ready till end of August now, which means car pickup the end of September, 1st week in October. Just in time for the fall colors.

Here's a pic of the doors in primer, ready for their Viper Green conversion.
