    Took Lolita around the block again after hanging some sheet metal. Can’t wait to row through the gears when she is done!

    Been working on the hood.
    Trying to emulate the factory 54 hood ornament.
    Then incorporate the bird taking flight into the graphics. Will have two scallops side to side as the birds wings and body. With the head separate of the scallops.
    Then nosed and decked the hood.
    Going to coin the term Nosed, Decked, and Beaked.
    Have not seen any hood scallops I really cared for on this body style. So rolling the dice and trying something new.
    I like it, but I am sure there will be plenty of people who don’t approve.
    Still tweaking the chin transition. Not happy with the flow yet. But I’ll get it right.

    Finished wiring up all of the lights.
    It’s amazing how much slower the process goes when you solder and shrink wrap every connection.
    Still have a lot of wiring to do before I get back to block sanding.
