    Looks good Eric!
    I've seen few cars that they look nice,but the builder hasnt pay attention for the gaps or details like that.
    It just give a feeling that someone has done it by a left hand.Or by a right hand if he/she was a left handed.Devil is in the details..
    Well,keep up the good work!

    Haven't been on the HAMB since Billet Proof Florida and from what I'm seeing here, your car is so close to paint... Depending on their schedule, color should be on in no time - great job Farmer!
     
  11. Eric , is it in the cards to pull it from the shop and hire another one to finish it up ? Seems they have run out of passion for your dream . I don't know where you get the patience to deal with the excuses and I am sure you have heard your share of them lately .

    Thank you everyone for your concerns! These guys are friends of mine and they certainly haven't lost the passion. They have just been very busy with the "regular" damaged cars coming in. I promise, there will be colour on the car in the coming weeks.
     
  13. HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ERIC!!!o_O:);)

    Update. "Finally" I hear you say! It appears the guys at the bodyshop are in the home stretch now. I agree that they've taken their time, but the result so far is magnificent!

    The last coat of base/ground has been applied to the body, leaving only the final sanding before the real colour is applied. (the hood and grill still need to be sorted out by the way. But that will be done this week.)

    Pics will follow soon.

  28. Great stuff, perfection takes time and patience.
    Like everyone else, I'm keen to see it in paint, but I'm even more keen to see that big ol Hemi make some noise. :D;)
