This view jumps a bit forward in the process, to 28 July '99, the day the car left Phantom Restorations to return to Rich Restorations.

By this time, the filler had been sanded and a coat of two-stage epoxy primer/sealer had been applied.

From 16 October '99 until 29 October '03 the unpainted body was in storage at Rich Restorations.
