I got good news and bad news.

First the bad news. The cement guys didn't show up on Friday.

The good news is that they showed up first thing Saturday morning. 7:00AM. The first cement truck got here at 8:00. About noon the cement was in and leveled off (pic 1). After lunch the power trowel started to work (pic 2). At 11:00PM, 16 hours after the guys got here, the sealer was applied (pic 3) and ready to dry overnight.

All that's left to do now is the siding...and get that new TC in there. :)

Excellent!  How much interior finishing/insulating are you going to do?

It's going to be insulated and sheeted but that's most likely going to be a job for next year. My line of credit is now to it's limit :(

Looking good....(but my stack of tires is taller than yours :D )

I took a picture of the inside out to show your TC, I'd swear it smiled :)

BTW I have at least one of the Turbo Coupe inserts that go in the door moulding. I'll see if I can dig up another.

Thanks TC50! My stack of tires is gone now. I sold the 10 holes I had on the t-bird so I put those wheels back on it (they are the Rikens Thunder Chicken was asking about)
If you can dig up a couple Turbo Coupe inserts that'll be great.
 
The siding is suppose to be started tonight. Another week or two and it'll be ready for winter...and the TC :)

i looked at your signature, and i was like "hey, who's this guy with the TC", then i saw "The New Thundergrowl"

If Tom cant dig up another one of the Turbo Coupe door badges, ill see if i can pitch in on the hunt
It's Gumby's fault.

Thanks for the offer :)
 
I had an animated gif for my new signature first that faded from the old sig to the new sig but it took too long for 56k users to download so I took it down

Sure! Why not? $35000 US should cover it. :)

That's a good idea when you're on the wrong side of a  Newfie but that question is my way of saying "c'est la vie"
