Thanks everyone!

In prepping for the trim to go back on, I media blasted and repainted all the reusable clips I took off if the car.

I am missing a few bolt on clips for the belt line stainless that that broke upon removal. I have some coming early next week to replace those.

But, I know I am still missing some of the smaller spring clips that hold the stainless around the side windows and those small clips with the tabs that you bend. But I am not sure just how many I am short just yet. Once I start putting it all back on I will know real quick!

Did another walk thru on the car yesterday, and found another drip in the clear coat. There were able to remove it in about 10 mins, and with everything passing muster, the flat bed was called to take the Clipper home.

Got the car home, and started putting some of the trim on. That blue looks outstanding next to the stainless and chrome brightwork.
