    I assembled and installed my front seats today. Nice just to sit in them. I have been stagnant on this project for some time since the body shop I use has had some significant turnover lately. I won't be making the Washington Pa roundup this year unfortunately. It would have been great to meet all of you who have helped along the way. Next year!

    New wheels and tires. Okay, it was yesterday. The finger in the picture is not a mod I'm considering.
