Overall, I am okay with the whole ordeal... The car came out better than I had expected even in the beginning... There are a couple minor issues which I double he had any control over, and at least one of them will just force me to do something I have wanted to do but not motivated enough to do. The transmission shifts excellent, comparatively... Smooth and nice, but I notice it has VERY weak synchros... I am guessing this is just something to get used to because every other sports-car I have owned (quite a few) has had weak synchros, just not quite this weak...
I am pleased... Not happy, not dissatisfied... Pleased. The time and trouble was the biggest issue that I had.
I would recommend Kevin if someone wants a good job for cheap, and can wait forever. But someone who can't wait - either make sure that every last minor detail is worked out before hand, and that no issues are in the way on his end (since he is a one man shop they disable him quite easily.)
Oh, and THANK YOU KEVIN!!! He gave me an owner's manual - something I had not had... YAY!!! That was a VERY NICE SURPRISE!!!

I am just posting the final outcome again so that people won't miss it.
As soon as I can get photochop or some imaging program better than paint, I will get some pictures up on the web...
