It's out of the shop till next week

Here are a couple shots of the Olds looking good as it came out of the body shop after hood replacement and fender repair and a few more that were taken at a car dealership later that day that had a foux oldie gas station as a sales office.It took forever to get out of there as the sales guys were having a slow day.The windshield will delivered and installed next week so I'm off to a car show with a cracked windshield this weekend!...Tedd

Thought I would hit the show in Corning Ca.Its one that I have missed in the past and hopefully there will a bunch of old but new to me cars there. This year I'm trying to expand my travels and participate in shows that I haven't gotten to or they fell on days that I traditionally went somewhere else, this will no doubt require a few long distance trips and I can hardly stand the wait.

You know I have never given my car a name, but The Mistress seams to fit her just fine. From now on she is The Mistress, Thanks Rob for the handle...Still lost in the fifties, hope to see you there soon...Tedd

PS. my wife has at times addressed her as the other woman when she is taking up to much of my time but I like Mistress better

Nope it's there, you had me really looking hard, I almost lost one last year when the bolt that holds it came off and left the skirt hanging by the installation hook( bad threads ). I now use Teflon tape on it.Thanks all for the complements... Tedd

I have a nice set of 55 skirts if you ever need them. Glad you didn't.
