To all within shouting distance,

Roy's expression holds true from rj35pj's thread about my coupe being on the home stretch. As it is coming home this weekend (if snow permits - here in the extreme Northeast we have to plan by the weather) after door, hatch and window fitting. About 40 hours labor give or take a few. What a difference in body work saved with the red drivers door. The right door actually took longer. The glass hatch fits like a glove and latches solid pulling the glass down on the gasket. Can't see light at all between the glass and the body. When you release the latch the glass pops up slightly. Keeping my fingers crossed on no leaks. The glass hatch does fit the black body with a minimum of work, maybe 8 hours total. Anyways can't wait to finish a bunch of to do's and then comes the job of stripping, bagging and labeling everything for the final paint. Getting there!!!
