    I've been working on a ton of color matching both under the hood and on the outside. Everything red under the hood including the top of the bayttery and the brake calipers are now body color. I also decided to do the grille in body color as well. I'm over the top happy with how all of this came out. One of my favorite things was finally finding a blue 12" oval air filter element. :)

    The interior is done and all back together now as well. I love the satin black on the dash, column and doors. The billet knobs that match on the dash are a big improvement along with the solid stainless shift knob and the aluminum door handles that I made to complete the look. My buddy James Carter did his ususal fantastic job covering the door panels.

    Incredible, a perfect example of why no project is ever done. There are always details that can get better. The doors look absolutely fantastic.

    Thank you! There is always something going around in my head to change or improve. It's been really nice to have a winter list that was mostly the cosmetic changes that I've been wanting to make instead of having to deal with the list of mechanical issus we have in the past. Looking forward to a fun year driving and enjoying the car.
