Got my car back from the body shop and started to put it back together. All the glass is back on and all the lights I tinted along with the black chrome emblems, weather strip, but still have not done my interior. I have everything new but waiting to get my seats and door panels back from the upholstry shop. I got new Sparco seats but having some custom work done on them and also the door panels to match. here are some pics I took with my cell phone.

Pete, despite the poor lighting I see that the car came out cherry! Please keep us all updated especially the new seats and door panels. Looks like a fine project indeed! :cheers:

Why the color change? Your car pulled off the sky blue quite well. Still looks great though :thumbsup:

Hey Pete, Looks really nice. Big change in color.

Can't wait to see it outside in the sun with the

interior finished.

Thanks. I can't wait to finish the car and start driving it again. Now that the paint is done you won't see me driving it in the snow anymore! :surprised I also changed out my HID's from 6000k to 8000k and I replaced my alarm system with more features and GPS tracking since the car was almost stolen from me. I have lots more work ahead of me but I have all winter to do it. And why the color change? I like the car better in black and it matches my 96 you see in the background in the second picture.

I know what you mean about Elizabeth, I was born and raised there. I also covered it on the job for 30 years.
I hope you have a garage for those beautys.

Elizabeth is not really as bad as they say it is but my car was almost stolen in Newark at a night club. My remote for my alarm also works as a pager and when it went off I ran outside with a friend and we caught one of the two guys trying to steal my car. We did not bother to get the cops involved but we definitely gave that thief a beating.
