After a lengthy tumultuous journey...
The last big item from my recent move to SE Georgia has been completed.
Spent the last 5 days in Holiday, Florida (near Tampa) at Lloyd Kendrick's Auto Body putting the Coupe Express back together after paint. Figured that having Lloyd paint it while I was moving 'other Stude stuff' would be the prudent thing to do. Painting a pre-war Stude is not for the feint of heart, as it has to come apart in a gazillion pieces to paint it nicely. Putting a Stude back together that someone else took apart is a pita.
Here's a pic of it after the finish sanding and rub out. Still needs some more 'rubbing on' (a Dave Lester term) and some trim to go.
Brought it home last night. That part felt real good......
