Looks really good. I like the incorporation of the bowtie in the image near the center.

I like it, except for the weird silhouette of a man in the background! That just looks out of place there!

That's because of the glare from the window, need to move it to a different wall. Looks good btw.

Must be some sort of ego maniac!

Well the car goes to exhaust this weekend finally! Got access to a enclosed trailer so its going rain of shine. The car will be there for a week then next weekend pick it up and drop it off at the paint shop for a few touch ups. Should be getting the parts for the display as well so we can start piecing that together while the car is gone.

The roadster show is coming fast now! Got our confirmation this week. We will be in hall E at the expo.

Got as far as I could of he judges book till I ran out of picture pages. Going to get some more supplies and crank out pages.

Also got the next big piece of the display last night. Got the stantions and metal tubes. Cj is going to work on hem this week while the car is at exhaust. Need to cut the holes for the lights and test fit everything then prime and paint the stantions and scotch brite the tubes. Just down to the carpet for the display.

Starting to look like we won't be pushing till the last minute before the show. Only have to clean the car up and polish it.

Always nice to be done early, and have time to really give things a second look. Looking forward to seeing it up close when it's done!

We are ready to be finished with the car and start showing it, and also start the next project that will be coming home after the roadster show.
