      Hi Folks! Sorry for the long period between updates. Have been regularly plugging away as I am able to. A frustrating process at times as I discover more and more things missing like random screws and trim pieces. These are the risks of keeping a project in the same shop as several other projects! I have all the body panels installed and am trying to get all of the trim on and then reassemble the interior.

      In the 1 step forward, 2 steps back column, I will need to remove my door panels again, readjust my driver's door to stop it from rubbing on the rocker panel, and reaffix the weather stripping around that door. I also need to adjust my fenders slightly so the hood fits a bit better. Then install the wipers, washer lines, etc.

      Mechanically, needs the idle and mixture adjusted and an oil change. The C4 is a little leaky and slips when it's cold, but it's been sitting for years. I'll top up the fluid and have to get driving a little to see what it's actual condition is.

      I'll take some pics the next time I'm at the shop. Haven't been documenting as much as I would like due to lack of time.

          That is on the list of potential upgrades I'm investigating.
