Running out of time. 16 days until it has to be in the trailer.

Pics from this morning.

^^ Nice plate. I assume it is a repro(?) I have the original plate off of my car, and I had a repro made by licenseplates.tv. It came out nice (the 2nd time around!). If you get creative with a color printer, you can make a pretty decent registration sticker. I made a July 68 sticker since that's when my car was delivered. Technically, the registration would have been renewed in June 68 so the sticker would have the expiration date of June 69. But I wanted the sticker to have the year of the car on it. Anyhow, I have the file somewhere. If you want it I'll e-mail it to you.

Thanks! It's also a repro from licenseplates.tv. If you can send the file, that would be great. I'll make a Jan 69 sticker.

only thing about rushing is people tend to forget something or dont get everything "just right".

Yes, the lower plate pic Jeff posted has the slots for the metal registration tag.

And sometimes what you thought was A-OK, like a 44 year old headliner, is really not and rips all the time.

One hood hinge had to be rebuilt and the original gauges have been cleaned up and tested.
