If it goes down with vasoline, however, my plan if Dadddio starts to feel uncomfortable, will be to tell him that this is all very normal.

I will stroke his hair, and tell him nobody likes a tattle-tale.
LOL !

Hey the surgical lube works well by the way.

In the home stretch. Thanks to Dadddio and his wife for help this morning getting glass back on.
I need to do some interior work now and detail a few places, but overall coming together pretty well.

Excellent work Dave.
Hey no worries, but that's high praise coming from somebody who knows what he is doing.
I got stuff going on at work and stuff going on at home, and I bet everybody else does too -- that pre-holiday rush can be pretty brutal.

Shawn, thanks -- could have been beginner's luck.

Matt, I appreciate all the help, you have been a great mentor: it's also okay to be protective of your student.
Shows good character buddy!

You're quite welcome but you did it all yourself.

Also black single stage is the toughest combination to take on. Well done.

Hey Tony thanks, truth be told I think your six speed project was one of the inspirations for my spoiler delete.

Matt I will try and get some decent outdoor pics done.
Merry Christmas, everyone.

Thanks Gerald!

I will try and get her cleaned up and off floor jacks for some pics in the sunlight.

One thing I did not hit on is the large amount of space left behind in the interior of the hatch, after the wiper delete.
I looked at several different options, but ended up fabricating a plate to cover any dead space. Another rivet job I'm afraid, but after paint it has a fairly low cosmetic impact.

I took the time to change the hatch latch, spring, and pin while I had everything apart.
Sidebar: I knew the spring was in the lock somewhere: but when I opened the latch mechanism up, it shoots across the room...Dammit.
Then I was like a Gorilla with a Rubik's cube, trying to figure out how it went back together.
