    Anodized air intake grills (the other three louvers are painted) and ducts are in as they were when the car was new. I need to hand paint the screws that retain the ducts, spoiler nuts and various other clam shell visible fasteners like the factory did to make it correct. I have 8 air box flanges that rivet to the fiberglass air cleaners (4 left overs ;)) to replace the cracked ones this car had, typical on the fiberglass air cleaners. 79 they switched to a stamped steel air cleaner that had an integral flange that didn't break! I still like the look of the glass boxes over the steel ones.

    Man that thing is dirty .... If I was getting that looking like that I wouldn't pay the bill :p

    Good job Paul!

    I'm sure the owner will be happy to get behind the wheel soon.

    I'd like to meet that little bloke reflected in the 2nd photo (Paul's son?) in 30 years and ask for his memories of seeing this wonderful machinery and of the folks who reverently handled them. I can start to see the effect on my son of 8 years old as I fumble around on my Gt4.

    Car looks fantastic. What a lucky owner.

    Is the flat black "Boxer trim" over the gloss black?

    He's a car guy to the bone. He actually drives me crazy asking to go out in the boxer everyday. I shouldn't complain! Tell me if this pic says "car guy".

    I agree! My ex-365 looked very good from behind as well.

    Keep up the great work, Paul. She's looking lovely.
