Way nice Chris and it was good to see how it's coming along.

For those of you that don't know, Chris here (finaddict) is in SLC UT. (where I am)

I was just over there during lunch an hour ago and you should see the progress on this one.

Very very nice work. It'll be bullet proof when done. (probably bullet proof now)

Looking great! Not to hijack the thread, but what is the primered sedan next to the fish?

Will be stripping, glassing, fairing topside now; it's a shame the bottom will not be seen after all that work but it'll be slippery ;)
