     Jeff,
     State Farm properly paid the maximum amount provided with my agreed
     value policy. Trust me on this, that payment is not fully covering
     the expenses. Not even close. You have heard the term "He's got more
     money than sense". I think they had me in mind.
     It just seemed wrong to have a perfectly repaired front end and just
     do a paint blend to put 2511 back on the road. The entire car was
     taken down to bare metal and any previously poorly repaired areas
     were properly restored. Minor issues saw both rockers removed but
     there was zero internal rust discovered. Also removed and
     straightened the entire rear panel as it called for more than just
     slide hammers and filler.
     Plus this seemed the perfect time to upgrade to a CHI/Blue Thunder
     404 Cleveland stroker, add Scott Bell's electric steering, Kirks HID
     headlights and flat firewall kit..... you get the picture. ;-)
     This is a complete body and paint restoration and not just collision
     repair. I think everyone will be highly impressed once 2511 returns
     to public view.
