Garry,
 Congratulations on getting you car back on the road and it looks beautiful!! Also so glad your journey of over 1100kms was uneventful and it always feels good to get them tucked away in garage after a nice long drive. I was down in your neck of the woods about this time a few years ago and as I recall it was a little on the "toasty" side. Good top down weather :) Hope you have many years ahead enjoying your Pagoda.

Garry,
Absolutely stunning !!
From top to bottom, one of the most gorgeous Pagodas I've seen.
You've done a great job.

Congratulations.
