To Paint?

Supposedly it is going to paint this week and to the upholstery shop next week. Which means we did NOT meet our Thanksgiving deadline!

These pieces in the photo are part of the dash and represent the gray color of the interior. They are trying to get as much done as they can "without tying up the paint" room. I guess because it needs so many coats of paint it will be in there for a few days!

We definitely do not want him to skimp on the coats of paint and clear coat. Anyway, we are really close!

This week we got all the weatherstripping, hubcaps, and fuel tank that we ordered from http://www.chevsofthe40s.com/. They had almost everything we needed and I am sure we will be buying from them again. They had great customer service and great quality products. Jimmy even bought an original owner's manual and the original "brochure" given to interested buyers. It is a perfect match to the original LIFE magazine ad given to us by Blake.

We still need to find and order a starter button, ours works but is old and difficult. Beginning the count down! Maybe it will be ready in two weeks!!!!!
