I had a visitor today. Ray "Picasso" Williams has been touring the country with some friends. Being from California, there's nothing to do there during lockdown, so they hit the road. They were in the Cleveland area so they stopped in for a brief visit and to check out the car. For those that don't know; Ray did all the computer graphics to design this car with me. The renderings that are in this thread are his work.

Looking really good. Did he enjoy the visit and seeing his design in reality?! Better tell him to start on the next design and rendering as you are are on the short downhill of finishing up this project!👍🏻

I'm on the fence with the color for the roof upholstery, so let me know what you think. The material will be a brushed convertible top material that has a very soft look. So, black or dark cranberry?

So cool that Ray could come and check out the car in person! A work of art you have there Jack!

I'm torn on the color as well, black would be timeless but the cranberry does add some style..

That's a tough question, but my first thought was cranberry. It just adds that little extra touch of class.
