Just curious but do you have any new updates on your build...

It's been a long 12 months, The painter has had the car for that long. He told me that it was only going to take 3 months. We been at his mercy.
Here are a few pictures to keep you up to date. We have been wiring and assembling the car at a steady pace after work in the evenings.
Starting to take shape. We are getting excited!

Well it been a while sence I posted anthing on this project.
The Super Stocker is almost finished. All of the wiring and pluming are finished, The car has been back to Pro Tree Customs of Apopka Fla for the final Sanding and buff job. (Looks awesome) No orange peel. Looks like you could go swiming in the paint.

Here are some up to date photos of the project.

That is one beautiful Coronet!
Is that carpet in the back interior section? Felt? It's so smooth it almost looks like splatter paint. I like it.
