    I like the thin strip of flake along the top of the door edge inside of the trim piece. Nice.

    I was looking at and considering that same Merc on Craigslist before you picked it up and glad it's gone to a good home. It's looking good.

My gal's unhappy Dog sitting in the Car, Thank you to my gal Trina for putting up with me while doing this, and following me up and back to Seattle . One last time ,I sound like a broken record .. BIG THANK YOU's TO Jason and the crew at Old Iron Customs !
