If I could get some pictures of the undercarriage and engine bay I will post later. I have it stored away temporarily at one of my other garages. Doing some maintenance work on my '66. As far as the woodgrain goes, it was hydrodipped in rosewood.

Fantastic job! Your work serves as an inspiration for me to finish my coupe. Family and career priorities have slowed my progress recently but I'm hoping to get back at it full swing soon and finish before I'm 40. I feel your pain about a 1.5 car garage. Thankfully my wife is a good sport and willing to park outside for now.

Thank you everybody for the compliments. I remember when I was the one looking at everyone else completing their projects and driving their vehicles. It was also motivation for me to stay diligent and keep working and sanding and sanding and sanding! So I'm glad I could be motivation for anybody else that needs it. It's funny because with my other classic car I do enjoy driving it but I don't go around places and think "ohh I'd love to drive my car here and ohh I wish I was driving my car in this town. " Everywhere I go, I always see some place that I would love to just drive my A around in. Unfortunately most times I'm traveling thru highways where 70mph is a must or with my kiddos and newborn. But I do drive it any chance I get. My boys love to get dropped off and picked up at school in it. So I'm happy for those moments. Hopefully they will always remember those times.

I have so many more pix but I didn't want to overload y'all with every single detail of the resto. I did try to document each step with certain parts of the project like the roof install. I will prably post pictures of that eventually just so they can be archived so everybody can see.
