Nice, Jack, nice. Someday, maybe, Tunebug will get to that level. Maybe.

Now stop going to those shows and start driving her! Way too clean of a car.

Jack,

After looking at your photos it is making me consider doing mine in white, since that was it's original color. But I don't know how it would look with white walls!

My first one was OEW with white walls. Looked fine.

In fact Miss Agatha has white walls, I just turned em around.

Jack, I never noticed bonnet bumpers being mounted up on those little blocks as on yours!! How come? Is that how they came? If so, mine are wrong (not that that is important to me!), just wondering!! :thumbsup:
Miss A is looking great :cheers: !! (love the signs, good spot for them! :wink: )
