    Almost done now, It's close to being ready to pick up. I'll still have a lot of work to do to get everything done and get it back on the road but it is looking great so far. Once again the Doll's do amazing work.

    Unfortunately not this year, there is too much left to do. The big stuff I have left is; re-chroming the bumbers, new upholstery, and new wheels/tires. Not to mention all the little odds and ends. I don't have enough time or $ to get it done by then. I'm hoping to make it next year though.

    Ted, I get to see your freshly painted Sprint first hand tomorrow morning when I take the 35 mile ride south to Palmerton to pick up my, now orange, parts from the Dolls. Jean told me that they are getting it ready to be transported back home. I'll take some pictures while I'm there. :)

    Yep, I'll be there Saturday to pick it up. Can't wait to see it again. I spent the last week putting an epoxy floor on my garage just to get ready for it. Definitely post your thoughts.

    Haven't confirmed with the Doll's yet but I would like to be there around 7:30 in the morning.

    I would love to go to Carlisle but I need to get the car back and in the garage by that evening. Next year I should be ready.

    Picked up my parts from Dale & Jean this morning and I looked at your Sprint and all I can say is:wow:

    I like your trim delete (and now all pieces painted white) on the rain gutters, side window frames and the boomerangs - We talked about doing this same thing with mine but I didn't know how it would look still having the front and rear glass trim shiny - I think it looks just fine that way, now that I saw an example - now I can sell my almost perfect boomerangs and use the ones that I have that are blemished and will now be painted body color :)
