Well, it’s that time of year again…Time to hitch up the dogs and hit the trail to begin that long trek back up to the still frozen North.  Global warm­ing my arse.  Tomor­row wraps up what has been the cold­est Win­ter sea­son we have ever expe­ri­enced in the last 29 years.

I’d like to stay longer, but frankly I’m bored and have a bunch of things to do back home before Mary Lee and I repack and head off for a new adven­ture in the “Big Easy” 2 days after Easter.

I recently got a call from NE Chrome Plat­ing down in Hart­ford and my parts are ready, while on hia­tus I sent out the tail light bezels, tail­fin trim, hood and trunk vees and crests along with the Cadil­lac let­ters from the fins and all are ready to be picked up.

Once back, my focus will be on remov­ing the inte­rior door trim and gen­er­ally prep­ping the car for paint.  In fact, if any­one has any advise on how to remove those door pan­els, I’m all ears and would appre­ci­ate the input.  I promised the body shop that when they finally got the car it would be com­pletely stripped of all trim and we are about half way there at this point.  Our 1500 mile jour­ney begins tomor­row, we should be in on Wednesday.

Until then…
