Some Pics Of The Project
Hey Guys....I realized that after almost two years and many, many, many posts asking (and receiving!) for your andvice and help, I've never shown what my project looked and looks so far.
I started (and like the car, haven't quite finished!) a webpage through my MSN account, and I put some 45 pictures (out of 400+ that I still have of practically everything done ) of the car as I worked on it.
Right now, it is just a windshield, interior soft trim, and of course..paint. Other than that, this baby is done. I hope you enjoy the pictures as much as I enjoyed making them happen...
You can see them by cutting and pasting this webaddress(unless it allows you to click as a link):

Take care!
Jorge

Nice, Jorge, and I agree with the Man from Oz - displaying them in before/after order really shows off the work.
Thanks for the inspiration and motivation.

Jorge, nice slide show.
you really took the time to show what you did all the way thru, and it is a gorgeous job.

Andy:
As a matter of fact, my calipers did have traces of green on them when I was cleaning them. I saw the green paint in some vendor's site, but thought it wasn't for my year because nothing else in that car has a green coating.
Anyone knows or have info about this? Is the green something year-specific? Pictures anyone?
