I would never have believed it would look that good! Congratulations on all of your hard work. You had a vision from the start. _________________ (o\_i_/o) what you've just said ... is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul - Mr. Oblaski, Principal |

First, let me thank all of you for your kind words, and support.
A few more pics of the final week..............
Rearview mirror, with the new headliner.
I think the console, and dash came out OK.
Now with 2 seats................
Another light check. (note the new top laying on the corvair)
Pretty much ready to go !!!!!!!!!
Again, Thank ALL Of YOU
If I can help anyone, just ask.
Have a Great Day,

Very SMALL show this weekend, only 4 cars.....
But it was for a good cause, the local Special Olympics.
I never would have thought that this buggy would be parked between a DeLorean,
And a 2014 Corvette,,,,,,
The BEST part was being presented with a Special Olympics Medal, by one of the Olympiads.
Have a GREAT DAY,
