The car is painted and looks mighty fine! I decided to paint it cyber green just like those New Beetles you see crawling around town. Why? I ain't seen one in that color, it's not resale red, and it'll match our cyber green beetle (which will be good for a few laughs). The body is now at the upholstery shop and should be out in a few weeks. A lot of stuff has to come together over the next four weeks to have a complete care at the national show, but it is all very doable: upholstery, polish aluminum (done next week), speedometer back (i hope in a couple weeks), lots of wrenching. Bruce Fullerton is helping quite a bit in running some of my stuff around town.
