Thanks! I just got an email from the sign maker with mockup and price to do the 3 decals on each side. The price was very attractive at $129 installed for all 6 decals. I'm getting the Mouse Trap back on the doors, plus A/G on the rear door, and the Isky Cams on the corner of the hood in smaller letters.
He showed me the colors, (might go gold with black border) and said if I want to change he will hold the price for me. Really nice guys, and they love doing hotrods!

They'll have the lettering ready tomorrow, but I wont be so it will have to wait. About the time I'm done I'll probably have to wait for another clear day again.
I got the rear bumper installed today, and all the lights in the bumper hooked up again. Started a little trim painting too, but not much else.

The car looks great!! Talk to your painter about cure time for outgassing before attaching the stickers. He might reccommend a month.

Thanks! Hadn't even tought about that, and I better check with him before I do anything for sure! Might not be an issue with such small coverage area, but better safe than sorry!

Got the tail end done today. All the lights, license frame and it's lights. Windshield installed too. Just have to install the door panels inside and window trim, then cleanup again, and it's ready to roll!
