    Well, if time for the big bucks now.

    Off to body, fabrication and paint. Struggling with color scheme, but I'm sure I'll figure it out.

    Looks great! July to March, guess they took the time needed to get it straight and do all the stuff like the doghouse, bed and wheels right. More pictures?

    Andy, must be a great feeling getting your baby back looking that Fantastic. I really like that floor shifter too. Is it comfortable shifting? BTW, really nice choice of color! cheers

    The shifter on the floor is just fine, since it is an automatic.

    The body shop took their good ole time since I told them it wasn't a rush job...so I was always on the back burner. But they did get things pretty straight.

    Hey, guys, I'm trying to find an aftermarket steering wheel boss (40 spline) to mount a 14" wooden Moto-lita. Got any ideas? I guess I should start another post with this question.
