STOP IT! you are making me not want to let the calypso green car go......lol:(

the car looks great

86NeSSP 08-22-2007 07:46 AM

I can't wait to see my car one of these days in similar shape. Of course two will be black and white and one all white. It does look like excellent progress and it will look awesome when completed.

Very nice. I like the peep hole front window...LOL

Andy 08-22-2007 11:32 AM

Looks Great! i know how much fun it is watching a project come together!

jarhed123 08-22-2007 12:54 PM

I can't wait to get it all together and start taking it to shows. I have so many things to put in the car and so on. After it is all together I will be selling all the extra stuff that I don't need or I don't choose to put in the car. Keep your eye open for them. For now I am having a hard time finding the correct Jetsonic lightbar so if any one knows of one please PM me.

I like the progress even though it is slow...

ImEvil1 08-29-2007 12:13 AM

Great pics, Marcos.

predator20 08-29-2007 12:41 AM

I'm so jealous. It looks great.

86NeSSP 08-29-2007 07:57 AM

very nice!

Mustang Matt 08-31-2007 12:04 AM

That is going to look awesome. Your attention to detail shows in those buck tag pics. There is no way the car won't look fantastic with that kind of detail. Keep up the good work and keep us updated. You are motivating me on the 93..

bmt336 08-31-2007 02:43 AM

OK I have to ask, what is with the mint green late seventies looking Catalina in the background...

jarhed123 08-31-2007 08:35 AM

The painter likes to do some restorations to keep his skill up. He tells me that 98% of his work is insurance related and with new cars there is no challenge because everything is taking off and put a new piece. He likes it when an old car comes in and accepted by the owner, for repairs and paint.

The official word today from the shop owner is that the car will be at home on Friday 9/7/07. That is good news because on Sat. we in S. FLA have the 911 run. Pictures will be posted and I hope all of you from S. FLA show up. Sunday will be the 1st day of work to put the car together.

Here are the latest pictures. The black has some dust from the shop on them and the trunk was ready to have the clear painted on.

ImEvil1 09-05-2007 09:04 PM

Looking good, Marcos.

86NeSSP 09-05-2007 10:11 PM

The paint is really coming together. Looking Great!

jarhed123 09-26-2007 11:31 AM

The pictures are not the greatest. Today I had several issues with the way some parts were put together. Attention to detail is usually a missing art for so many people. Most people think only about quantity and not quality. I hope it will be fixed soon. http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c3...SSP/SSP109.jpg

Fantastic... It's real close now! Can you see the finish line yet?

Matt

jarhed123 10-12-2007 08:17 AM

Late yesterday afternoon I got the car towed home. After I have put it together, somewhat, I will post pictures.

I have been working on the car all day today. Here is what it's looking like and the rest of the pictures I put on my photobucket.

FHP813 10-13-2007 06:52 PM

What a difference a day makes, Looks AWESOME!:2thumbs:

ImEvil1 10-14-2007 02:04 AM

+1. Can't wait to see the finished product.

predator20 10-14-2007 08:18 PM

Looks great... can't wait to see it with the steelies on it.

jarhed123 10-15-2007 07:44 PM

I got the wheels on the car today and the lightbar has arrived. Now I need to paint the dash, run all the cables from the radio and radio equipment and then I will put in the interrior.

FHP813 10-15-2007 08:20 PM

Sharp, Marcos. :thumbsup:

NoDrama43 10-15-2007 08:58 PM

very very nice. its great to see one getting restored back to in service.

:2thumbs:

jarhed123 10-28-2007 10:52 PM

Well I spent the entire weekend working on the car and I have got it completed!! Here are only two pictures but many other new ones are on my photobucket (Follow the link). I had some minor lighting issues but FHP813 was kind enough to help me out with them. I encourage you guys to give any feedback on the car/equipment/ or technical stuff that you might see wrong on the car (Don't hold back). I prefer to hear it from you guys than some snot nose kid at a show laughing and pointing the car while saying, "That is wrong with your car. My daddy said it is supposed to be like this."

Interior is complete minus the radio. I can't figure out how to stick it in and I can't find out how to put it in from the back. (Don't think dirty)
