The last big pieces are painted !

Good to see another one saved!

Hi there,
Just a small addition, I asked the coachbuilder to blackout the radiator support so that you cannot see the yellow paint through the grille, done !

 

[Olivier]

Reassembly in progress ...

It's coming together nicely! How are you French folks going to fit in the car though?

Wow that is a lot of work. So how did you acquire the car? Keep it up, hopefully we'll se the end result after awhile!

I bought it in 2019 to a guy that imported it in 2016
The end should be close

[ct71rr]

It’s looking very nice so far!

 

[Olivier]

I think you brought me bad luck saying that !
Just had this pic of the coachbuilder ... the two side marker bezels I bought new from Herb's broke like a crisp when he tried to install them ...
Looking for a pair now ...

 

[ct71rr]

Damn, sorry about that!

[Olivier]

Some fresh news here
She's almost done , juste a few paint touches on the screws and bolts after reassembly in various places and the hood inserts still on the list, but otherwise, she should sent back to the mechanic next week for wheel ajustments and to check everything's right
The end is near !

 

[Olivier]

A quick question though :
My coachbuilder doesn't recall where these parts mount, any clue ?
Thanks
