Took it out for a long drive and all is great!!

It really turned out nice. Now that the work is done, can I come back for a visit! LOL

Really, it looks too nice to drive! I think you better just park it and work on Val's car.

Wow! Now is this considered a 'driver' or is it for resto competition?

Mark,
Thanks. I'm not sure why, but I think that your choice of blk walls/rim color vs white wall/blk rim ...put great icing on the job!

Thanks hated the white walls from day one and wanted a more elegant car that is why we choose all black and the correct wheel color,, Thanks for the compliment on it!
