Its officially home, have some small stuff to do, paint trim, interior, etc. The car has been buffed lightly once, going to do more if I get some warm days.

Came up with a good way to give me a modern look on the back glass install. Used a rubber trim from CRlawerence #109 and "floated" the glass a bit higher than normal with a really good urethane used for glass installations. I think it came out great.

Looks good, I bet it feels good having some paint on that thing. The vast amount of body work I have left stresses me out. I also bet it's nice to have on the road again. Congrats!

It felt good to mark off a huge portion of the check list this morning. Ofcourse I had to add a few things to it.

Im considering adding a supercharger from a ZL1/CtsV, they are really cheap on ebay. I'll have to research more on the proper repair since they are recalled units. Any one have any experience with them?
