Day...the camera charger was found
Here's what you missed while we were unable to upload pictures.
The outside was Polished.
Polished Details - We decided to leave some of the original patina around the rivets and on the bottom fenders.
The body was lifted off the frame and new floors were put in and stained.
The front and back side-lights were built and installed.
Bam! Polished perfection.
Rear lights rebuilt and installed - Original glass!
More floor pictures, because they look so wonderful! Notice the modern-industrial carriage bolts securing the floor.
Hims guarding The Spartan
Today the floors are being coated with polyurethane to ensure our beautiful Golden-Oak stained wood will last a while. Keep checking; now that the charger has been relocated, the posting will continue...
