First off , your build is looking fabulous so far John.

Secondly, I haven't heard that saying in years!! My dad used to say that to me and my brother all the time growing up. Man you just took me back about 40 years with that one. lol

Amazing scratch building, always enjoy watching you builds come together.

One detail on your phone, the reference picture is a modern retro touch tone, so it has the extra # and *. Fill two holes on the right above the finger stop and its all good.

We have GOT to have a talk with Gregg so that we can start using the language required to heap praise upon your skills and results.

Otherwise, my entire comment would be filled with "Blah-Blah's".

Another wonder filled update.

Dang Johnny Boy!!! That is looking Killer with the little details in place in the interior as well as the Rear Tail Like. You are a true craftsman brother!! Keep up the great job on this. I am sure this is going to be seeing some paint very soon.
