also, make SURE you take delivery of the car in full sun. it's VERY important being a black car and all that there are NO swirls or imperfections in the paint. go over it with a fine tooth comb. it's easier to get them to fix it if you don't accept it than if you have to take it back to them.

Got my SS spolier in the other. John I did't get the 96-97 I went with the 98+ after looking at alot of pics I decided I like the 98+ better. Also drove by the shop today and my car is atleast inside and they have the parts front end outside. Hopefully that means they started tearing the thing apart. I'm probably going to go by there tuesday and drop the spolier off and have an update hopefully good progress with have been made and I get the car back this week.

Ok so basically the car is the same. They are finishing up some small stuff and then will get started on my car and a trans am that is there that basically has the same damage as mine. It definetly won't be done this week, they said by the end of the month, so there's still a possibility of making it out to the cruise in my car.

Just alittle update
The car will not be ready for the meet this weekend. They ran into some problems with the front clip that they got from the insurance, it had some damage to it that was not aceptable so they had to get another. The good new is that they have the new front clip and work is finnally starting to happen so thats got me alittle excited, its been a long month
