As am I, there was a little more body work than I expected but they have really impressed me so far, I have stopped up each week to get a peak and she was in the paint booth today when I stopped. I’ll post as soon as I get something..... Thanks for asking.

She finally came home today


Now the reassembly begins, of course after a thorough cleaning, it was sitting in the paint shop collecting all sorts of flying dust and dirt under the hood and on other areas

the bed shouldn’t take near as long, it was pretty much done already, of course final touches are always a necessity.

After cleaning the dirt and dust from the paint shop, I got started on door seals, thanks to these forums it went great.

once those were wrapped up reassembly started.......

Have to take it apart to put it back together

Progress, today was spent in the shop all day, of course the games were on while work was being done.

Started the soundproofing, and there is a noticeable difference of the noise when I close the doors, it’s definitely going to take more time than what I expected but it’s progress.
