    I love these types of expressions of progress. Hope to have one of my own in the next few weeks. Your car is looking great--need to hurry to make it to the National....

    Sweet! Like the color around the windows. What's the rest of the colors gonnna look like?



    My favorite part of the restoration process is final assembly time. When you finally get a "roller", then when you first fire her up are great times during the resto process.

    the color is similar to the primer , its an ivory white , not sure if I should do all the roof with the turquoise or not ?? I hope Im finally turning the corner on this one , it should go faster from here . Bill Albright was my inspiration when he started on the last Hornet , as busy as he and his crew are and still find time to squeeze in their world class restorations , thought I should at least do a driver resto. I was in the middle of a Charger RT -SE resto but couldnt wait to start on the Hornet . Charger is in a million pieces- oh well, Ive done enough of them I'll jump back on it when the Hornet is done or maybe the Wasp will jump the line and be next . got the Hudson bug bad !!!!

    Bartibog bet you enjoyed your drive - keep up the good work !!!
