I must say that is one GORGEOUS ride!!!! Good work! Say....if your last name is Harvey, why not keep it in the Harvey "family" and do another restoration....maybe on my truck since I'm also a Harvey? LOL

vtblazer · 05-29-2005, 08:23 PM

Hey paint it red!!

makes me wonder if I should paint my top green.
I like it matching to body color.

That looks really sweet!!

Great job, short time, wow.

krue · 05-29-2005, 09:05 PM

For another $1 you could of had red paint.

Looks great.

He was more into the "painting" aspect. I would pull parts to clean and sand, he loved to primer and paint them. He thought it was pretty cool to be able to reach/fit into places I could not. I do know he was tired of being my little gopher but he learned tools quickly. Knowing that it will be his someday kept him motivated.

That's magnificent. Great job, Teamharvey. You guys should be very proud. The matching top looks great and the interior is spectacular!
