    Replacing the heat shields. There was only one that I couldn’t source new so I found a nice used one.

          Got alignment today and it’s first bath and wax since I’ve owned it. Tomorrow is exhaust. It’s such a beaut and needs a new too so badly!

            Exhaust done. Found that the noise coming from
            this thing is a manifold that’s not fully tightened down.

            Love how it came out!

              The exhaust tips and fitment look really nice.

                I was honesty worried about the 3.5” tips. I thought they’d be too big but they came out perfectly. I’m really happy with the entire system.

                  She’s loaded up going to Jake at Classic Daily for final tuning and tweaks. Can’t wait for this thing to be done.

                    Right after it left, received this in the mail. Hope it doesn’t have any Rona coming from Belgium.

                      New top is on order. Went with Twillfast dark blue through topsonline. Ended up getting a charcoal rear window vs. the "green". Just in case, I got new tension straps, front and rear bow/header seals. Will totally bring this car so far once the top is brand new. With all the Covid stuff, it'll be a few months before I get her back.

                        Missing the car and with the quarantine I’m thinking I’ll go up to Michigan to get the car in June. Still trying to figure out the planted seat sliders which don’t seem to be correct but have been told it’s what’s used on all of customers cars.

                        Started to clean up the tow rig and have a couple mods that are gonna happen also. Need something to work on haha.

                          Jake and Tim at Classic Daily are making a ton of progress on the car this week. We’ve had some upgrades to it to make it more reliable and fun to drive :-)

                          Head studs, Coil on Plug, performance timing belt, upgrades oil pump pulley. We may go Water/Meth injection or e85 but we’ll see.

                          AC items are back in. Top is nearly completed (liking the charcoal window). Also ordered squared HID retro kit so that’ll be install too.

                            Classic Daily got the HID kit installed and the front end all put back together. They are running the battery to the trunk because we will be using that room in the front for the coil on plug setup.

                            Although I like plastic bumpers, I think the color matched big bumpers and IS valance came out great.

                              Car back on the ground and in storage for a few days as we wait for additional parts. Then coil on plug, battery relocation, and some paint work.
