Time To Hit The Trail

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…
