Hi Patrick,

Saw the bonnet yesterday and it looks real good. Did not take a photo as I was in a bit of a hurry.
When will you have a chassis ready to set the tub on it.
Just wondering.

Doesn't look like there's much activity here these days.

Finally picked up the body from paint. Thanks to Martin Keller for the transporting help!

I did a lot of research to find the BRG I wanted. I used this as my guide. As this guy mentions, they're either too blue or too yellow. I wanted mine with more black. My painter mixed the perfect color.

Almond Green had the more yellow tint to it, BRG is the darker one.
