Of course, the first thing I had to do was put the fender tag back on! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/drool.gif[/img] Thanks guys for following along and the words of encouragement!!! I have some more photos next week after I paint the doors and some detail items.




So what's up next? I need a freakin break!!! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/thumbsdown.gif[/img] But I'm so excited for Phase II. Next up will be the interior doors painted black, radiator blackout, engine bay markings, and a cool thing I have planned for driver's side inner quarter panel window area [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img] Stay tuned for more posts like, &quot;Why am I even in this hobby?&quot; and notable things like, &quot;I labeled all the part and put them in baggies. How come I can't find (insert part here) and have three of (insert part not from another make/model car) these in here???&quot; [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img] [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/thumbsdown.gif[/img] [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

Looks beautiful.

BTW, the left screw should be painted orange and the right screw would be natural on your car. See the slight bend in the left upper corner of the tag? That is there because the tags were installed by one screw prior to paint and bent up slightly in case one of the line inspectors decided to put an inspection mark into the tag. After the car got further down the line, the other screw was installed later.
