Took me some time today to get my tires mounted, so I got started a little late. However the rear tires made contact with the rear fender. So I had to raise the rear. That took all the time I had for today. I managed to get a couple of pictures.

They have 205/45R-17 up front and 225/50ZR17 in the rear. I didn't figure the height of the two tires would be that differant. Kinda has a funny look to it now.

I wanted to paint the bumpers, but it took me a while to change the rear height.

Looking good Mike. You could always boil the 225's down to the nub quickly and fit a pair of 215's the next time ;)

Well, I didn't really get any work done this weekend. But I did finally move the car to my house. I've lived here for a couple years now and this is the first time my Ghia has been here. :D

We might be going to circle yer wagons this coming may. I'll let you guys know for sure. I would like to have the Ghia there too, but that'll depend on cash flow.

I've been working an hour here and there on it. I finally got my harness in today. Now this is going to take a thread of it's own. But where do I put it, electrical or engine?

Wow Mike. I haven't been here in years, and I'm glad you're still chipping away at that Ghia. That's gonna be sick when you're done. :)

That makes two of us. Yeah, I'm still working on it here and there.
