Copy that.

This LC is just amazing. I keep coming back to gaze.

Man, if you find your way to Denver, we need to do a photo shoot of yours and mine! Awesome.

I might have to do that! Always nice to get a group pic

I must really get out more often ( of the 25 and 40 sections) there are so many great restorations going on... Love the looks of your rig ... Fantastic job!!!

Beautiful Jo on this resto. My LV is also Spring Green. I have to do that coral interior. Can you tell me where you sourced it? Also, what brand of paint did you go with and was it difficult getting the paint codes? Thanks, Mark

Unfortunately the guy who did my seats passed away shortly after doing the seats so I am not sure how to source the material. Bob Anderson for early of Proffitts Cruisers now with Metric Offroad sourced the paint, so I'll find out that info for you. Thanks for the compliments!

Nice job! Love the NOS gas cap.

Why not a new radiator?

I have new vin plate, and year tag if you need them.

Did you get the chain covers as well?

Shane

It is a new radiator. I've got a line on a new VIN tag for mike at Cruiser Corps, just need to send him info. Yes, the chain covers are on now. Thanks man!

Thanks man! It's been a project and a half, but I couldn't be happier with the finished product. I finally got the horn, oil pressure sender and what not to function properly now, so now I just need to drive it for a while to dial it in.

I've got am cool gal hot on it right now, so it might be spoken for. We'll see...
