Default Close to finished, "79 Z28

Been a long time but the '79 Z is getting close. Just finished with the vinyl striping. Turn signals on order (you don't want to know how much) and some front end things to finish like chrome screws to black, etc. Getting close but still have a bunch of mainly electrical gremlins. Pretty much have taken nearly every single bolt off this car, painted it personally and put back together, with few exceptions. My bud did the vinyl while I was working on glass for the doors and other things. Too bad I have to sell it when I'm done. Can't finish the '72 Prostreet without selling the '79. And to think this is a daddy/daughter project gone haywire and she could have owned for half of whatever money I had into it but when she was 20 hours into itshe said it was cutting into her social life and forgot our deal.
