Default On The Home Stretch

I visited 0327 yesterday. The fenders are on; the last thing is the front bumper cover/grill and the side moldings. Put 5 gallons of gas in the tank, started it. Then I went over to the interior shop. They've made a new package tray and are now ordering the headliner and carpet. They're ready to go.
In the next two weeks I'll bring the roof antenna and wiring to install plus the CC1 to Siren amp cabling for install under the carpet.
Attached are pics; the shop is small and lighting poor so it's hard to get good pics. And it is dusty; we keep it covered with a tarp but the dust shows on the hood. As soon as I can get it outside I'll take a complete set.
Still need a correct shotgun rack.

Default Body & Paint 99%

It's been a long almost two years, but 0327's body and paint are complete with the exception of the side moldings. They'll go on in a day or two, then 0327 will be going into the interior shop, hopefully Friday 7/26.
It should be ready for the Ripon EV show in October.

Doing it the right way takes lots of time, money, patience, money and more patience. Thanks for doing it right Steve. It’s going to be well worth all the effort.

Thanks for the encouragement and kind words everyone. It is a challenging endeavor. I wonder how many 82s are still out there and will be restored. It's gotta be getting really difficult to find parts now.
I'll take some good outdoor pics of 0327 as it leaves the body shop.

Well it's official, 0327 comes out of the body shop this Friday, completed, and I will take it directly to the interior shop.
I'll wipe off the dust and get some good outside pics.
