ULTIMATE GL car is on the road
After 1.5 years in my shop, I finally got to DRIVE my car this weekend. Took it around the block a few time to try and seat the new brakes. I've never had a car this fast. Right rear suspension is a little low, so I couldn't really get on it without rubbing the tire on the fender, but I can fix that.
Just need a few more days to sort out the brake lights and get it alligned. Best of all, I got to wash a years worth of dust off the car.

So far, looks like I may keep the 65 bus a while. Was thinking of turning micro into panel, but I may go the other way and add some more windows for the delux look, be different.
