Working on the suspension now and enjoying driving the car.  Planing on removing all the little dents and door dings next then paint.

Yes, I'm getting the alignment done this week, then a few shake down short trips to check everything. Looking forward to it, it will be an adventure for me.

Not a fan of Cowls but you did a great job and its small enough to still look good and flows with the lines of the car perfectly.
