    Nice work! Is the binnacle (assuming that's what it is) in picture 7 the same one that is in picture 15? If so, what in the world did you do to make it look so good again? That is the best repair I have ever seen!

    PS- Nice Corrado! I have always had a soft spot for those...

    Looking great! I remember going to see this car when it was up for sale locally, glad to see it being restored like this.

    Nice work!
