BIRDIE ANNOUNCEMENT….sort of….she’s on track, but this isn’t guaranteed!

Birdie is currently on schedule to be completed (99.9% anyway) by July 19th.

I’m currently planning Birdie’s unveiling to be during the county fair parade on July 19th.

She likely won’t be 100% done yet. For instance, I don’t think we’ll have the pin striping down the body and on the wheels yet. I also have a couple of minor mechanical items that will likely still need to be done, but those are minor and can be done later.

For an upholstery sneak preview of the rear passenger area…..here is one of the rear grab handles. The door panels, head liner, and all non-seating surfaces will be the light tan. The darker tan, striped fabric will be on all of the seating surfaces.




The front, chauffeur area, will all be black leather. The second picture is the front seat.
