Btw, major congrats on being obsessed and crazy. I absolutely love riv and will one day have a car painted this color.

You have to remember that 1 gallon probably makes 2 gallons once you reduce it down. You don't spray it directly from the can you have to add reducer, hardner etc... a gallon is more than enough.

Man that is going to look good! I'm ready to start turning wrenches and get that thing back together. The weather has been pretty good for a cab - let's get her done! Call me when it's time.

I can't believe this thread is over a page long and not a single suggestion about another set of wheels.

BTW, the car looks great.

I always hesitate to open your progress reports because it just depresses me. That is going to be one beautiful car. I can tell already it will be in the top 2 or 3 of my all-time favorites.

I gotta get back up there to see it in person sometime.

Keep the phone handy sir it will be ringing. I should have it back by the end of the week. I will color sand and buff and will be ready after that. Almost seeing the light at the end of the tunnel.

Awsome . I do not know if it is just me but with all the pics and updates I already have a visions of the car cruising down some country road with the Ruf wheels spinning with shinny turbo bumper and tail and the hot HB seats and Riv. seat belt with of course the top down . The light in the tunnel is worth reaching for in this case . Can`t wait .

Cheers Guy

Mike,

Simply awesome. Ever think you will make it up North with that car? I promise, there isn't a lot of sand/salt and other car destroying substances on the road during the summer. Perfect time.

Mike,

Great work as always I can't agree more with briefescape. Is this P-car definitely a keeper or are you going to keep doing these great projects....

I wished I lived in the middle... Cactus, speaking of mid-Atlantic, got any good places for some boys to go for a road trip? Have a 09 M3 in DC, 599 GTB in NYC and My C2 in Boston... looking for a place we can all go for a boys weekend somewhere in the middle... appreciate any suggestions

I am done with the projects. This one goes in my garage forever or at least until I get the itch again. Seriously, I'll be in this car for awhile.

We need to arrange a Summer or Fall RENNLIST meet. That would be fun. I think people have done it before.

Headed to Niagara this weekend but a Summer meet sounds good. Will call my buddy Andreas before he gets looped out on Soapsters beer.
