My car is finished!

Postby Booney » Thu Mar 26, 2009 10:18 am

After two years and who knows how much money ( I do but Mrs.Boon doesn't need to know ) I have got my 1968 XT Falcon back on the road.

Interior goes back in on the weekend and Regency on Monday....Hooray!

The interior goes back in on the weekend and some final chrome trim that is being dipped today. Goes over Regency on Monday and then my next few week ends will be spent polishing and cruuuuuuuising! :lol:
