This post should not go unappreciated. That car really floats my boat.

I really think I may do a restoration of a Sunbeam Alpine to match what Grace Kelly drove in To Catch A Thief.

Caught this beauty at Central Market this evening… betting that it belongs to a member of the Najo Average Orchestra playing there tonight…

Going with the typical theme of Surlys, the inspection is past due, therefore, I would not drive it.

First box of parts from Summit Racing arrived.  New oil pan.  Can’t wait to build the new engine, block is currently getting a dip and hone.

Body shop sent me a picture of the painted cowl.  They are waiting for lower humidity to paint the body.  Said they won’t send pics of the body, I have to come see it in person. :)

Lower humidity - better plan for a Christmas paint job  :)
