After wire-wheeling it for a bit tonight, it seems the paint didn't adhere to the stainless steel areas right before the muffler and the lowest portion of muffler.

Got the wheels on, painted the lug nuts and wire-wheeled the rotors face.
Front...
Rear...
Did a little cleaning in the hatch area.
Installed battery box cover sticker (Thank you, Rob). Need to pick up four nuts for the cover.
Rear bumper cover is back on and the exhaust is painted, again. Have about ten or twelve items to address before it's "good enough".
Getting down to crunch-time for the PA event.

I'm looking forward to seeing this car in person at PVGP. I've got a red 77 sitting here begging for restoration and this thread keeps inspiring me.

Thank you, guys.
The car is in nice shape, but the camera is very forgiving. Plus, someday soon (picture me praying here), after I retire and get to totally disassemble the car...she will be a much finer example. There are those days that I feel the car is not even worthy of this event, especially when I see some of the others beauties attending.
However, I'm looking forward to seeing many more fine examples at the PA event, picking up pointers and meeting some 928 lovers in person.

Looking forward to meeting you in person, Nate. Was following along on your restoration closely, but lost track of things here...when my job consumed my life for the last year or so.
