Bobby, congrats! I know you have worked your butt off bringing this car to life. It looks great and I know from all the wonderful pictures that it is mechanically sound. Should be a great car to show and DRIVE. Let me know when you are heading towards Texas.  As always thanks so much for the updates.

Here are a few steps regarding the hubcaps . positive piece (wheel cover ) then a snad mold is made . only can pull one piece per mold. aluminum is melted and poured into mold. out comes a beutiful extreamly serious piece of armor for the wheel covers. then the piece is metal finished (pictures not yet avalable) this will be made into a satin finish matt all metal parts will have no paint on them . All side mechanics are metal as well. the orignal car side mechanics were vacuformed plastic, then painted. I know this because I talked to Paul Ozzimo, at TFX years ago.
