    God it sure looks long with that color (First Pic). I had a 1975 New Yorker T&C, and it was loooong, but that makes it look like its on steriods! Outstanding work!

    Great job!! Smooth as butter. I like the way the color flows looking down the side. Is it a color change? I am wanting to change the Griz from white to a dark blue (can't see how the red interior is gonna go with that tho). Is it a major undertaking? Post some pics when you're done with puttin all the trim pieces on. :yup:

    Beautiful job. With the front all taped up, it's hard to tell the year and model. My guess is '72 Plymouth?

    Yup, you're right. 72 plymouth Custom Suburban. Should be finished with final assembly Monday or Tuesday. I will post some finished pictures then.

    That makes for a beautiful wagon. Love to see it sitting out in the Arizona sun with the trim and chrome shining. :camera:

    Well, maybe I'll have to get you to practice on mine, the next time I drive down to Mexico. :rofl2::thumbs2:

    So you're saying I only have one more year to wander aimlessly through the Arizona desert? Cool I can't wait!

    Looks really nice.

    Is that your A/C unit on your roof? Is that common in that region of the country?
