Looks amazing! I know they're handles for lifting, but doesn't the black look good against the white bodywork? I'd be so tempted to try some blacked out trim and handles on it!

Dropped my project off at Lenny's shop on Friday, then went for a cruise Saturday with Sarge, Carlos, Jim, Dustin, Stephan, and Henry.
What a way to spend a weekend! Thanks for the invite guys.

My Ghia is finished!! Thanks to the help of my good friend Dustin, my car is finished and ready for "The June Classic". I hope to see a lot of you Loungers there. I'll be at Nick's Friday, hoping to make it to JayCees on Saturday, and finishing off at Irvine Ampitheater Sunday for The Classic event!

Scott, I just stumbled upon this thread and your build was great. Doing the work, having some friends help along the way, and seeing the beautiful finished project is what being a gearhead is all about!!
