[Dangerous Doug]

How'd I feel? Elated! Even though it was a bunch of boxes of suspension parts, gauges, wiring, and a body mounted onto a powder-coated frame, it was just a thrill to actually see some visible progress in achieving my dream.

3 years later, I just finished registering it and have shaken out most of the details. I have yet to paint it, but it looks "50/50" good (looks good going by at 50 mph from 50 feet). I can live with the gelcoat, for now. I've been driving it much more than I thought I would.

Paint is likely this summer or early fall. Then, install the carpet kit I'd purchased about a year ago, and I'm "Done." (Cobra veterans will tell you you're never done. I believe them.)
