Spectacular Rick, your work is second to none! I absolutely can't wait to see this one at MCACN....must admit I'm gonna miss this thread, it's been fun watching this beauty progress to completion. Now go start working on that 70 Z28 and maybe you can post some pics of that one along the way.

Looks great Rick. Any chance we might see it at SCR22? I'm sure that there would be a spot for it inside the Corvette museum.

Thanks to Phil Woj for going over all my photos in this thread and then inquiring about the clip that holds the wiper squirter hose onto the cowl. I know the 1970 Chevelles had them and was unsure about the 69's. Since there was not one on this car when we found it I just incorrectly assumed that the 69's did not come with them. Maybe the owner removed it when he took the hoses and hood off. At any rate and thanks to Phil it is now back in place. Yet another reason why constructive criticism is a good thing. Thanks Phil.

Scott, thanks for asking. Our trim rings arrived this morning AND FIT PERFECTLY!!!! FINALLY!!! Because of that we took it outside today for some quicky photos though it was very bright and my camera was not set up right. It is now 99.9% done (battery has not yet arrived). Not the best shots but you get the idea.
