Just went to Florida and picked up the Coronet from the painter. It looks super nice- really happy to be back on track with our project. We have been dead in the water for nearly a year so now we can finally do the assembly. While we were waiting for paint we bought the remainder of the parts needed to finish the car. We work on 1 area of the car and continue to buy parts for that area until we are done (such as the engine, suspension, interior, weatherstrip, etc). Sometimes we are fortunate to be able to purchase a lot of parts at once and make a lot of progress. Other times if the budget is tight, we buy 1 part at a time. It may be a $5.00 part or it could be a $500 part. It is all about making progress. Eventually, you have all the parts needed to finish the car. Don't fool yourself though- there is always 1 more part... Any questions, ask.
