Well, the car got the final coat of clear last weekend.  It looked beautiful!  Every panel was stripped, reworked and block sanded a number of times from start to finish.  It really looked incredible.  Here are some pics from last Sunday.

Unfortunately, the shop was broke into the very same evening.  The vandals stole a bunch of tools, spray painted on some trucks in the shop and dumped thinner all over the car and uncured clear.  Why someone would do something like that I'll never know.  There were several people that helped on this project during the winter and put their heart along with many hours in and it makes me sick.  With the season starting for us in just a few weeks there is no time to strip and repaint so we'll polish it and hope for the best.  Here are some pics from the next morning

To end on a good note though take a look at the new vid in the video section ;)

That's totally a shitty deal. Glad things cleaned up pretty well for ya. Word on the street is there's a chance for either cookies or muffins in GB!
