Does that link work for you, Chris...? Not for me.
Me neither.
Sorry, I will repost it in a bit from a desk top to see if that works. It really isn't much progress it's just being prepped for paint... Thanks

It's like waiting for Christmas morning.
Enjoy the wait. It will be worth it. Henry and his crew build great cars.
wow! a CMC chassis looks kinda wimpy compared to the IM. That's one nice peice!
It's interesting to see pics of Henry's new shop (interior, that is). Looks a little larger than his previous operation.
I hope the parking outside is better.
They sure didn't used to make them that that solid looking .......... I want one!
I love my IM, can't wait for spring! I will enjoy watching yours being build. What color?
Still new to this world, but seriously, you guys have helped immensely with your insight and experience. Still trying to decide between an IM and a SAS. Talked to Steve at SAS--great guy, honest, and really informative--but, its a 2 year build out. At 60, I'm one small embolism from shopping at the Scooter store, not for a Cabriolet. IM's seem perfect--but a cab with ac,and a water cooled engine looks to be about $65. Thats a fairly high threshold. So what do you guys think? Anyone know of a great used IM cab, a used SAS? I'm curious as to what was the determining factor for you Chris. Thanks again for your time and insight.
Hey Tom---Thanks for the offer, and I would love to see your car. I actually was over at IM America yesterday and had a great talk with Bob. Wealth of info, and has a really nice operation. He currently has two used Im's for sale--both beautiful cars--but one is a Speedster--and at 6'1 I think I'm better suited to a Cab, and the other was a Cab with no air, or stereo--creature comforts yes, but I think my car will be spending half the year in Naples, Fla--so air is a necessity. Please let me know when your car returns, and I'll trade you lunch for a ride and all your knowledge. Great to know there's already a support group here in Michigan.
Chris, the build process is so awesome; albeit a little stressful. The anticipation can be overwhelming at times.
Luckily, one of our specialties is homemade Limoncello. A small shot helped me fall asleep during the build process.

The IM Roadster does have more headroom, and a better fitting (tighter, more rainproof) top. Both the Speedster and the Roadster can share the same mechanicals, though.
Tom let me know I will meet you guys with my IM. I purchased my Speedster at the Southfield store. If I can help Mustang I live in Sterling Heights, let me know.
Hey Whit---would love to see your car and hear your experience. Will wait to hear from Tom. Also, please let me know if you hear of any nice IM"s on the secondary market. Thanks
