JC those shells belong to me , they come and go..... when I see that its worth the deal and the repair, I jump on it.
The photo was taken this past Saturday. The closest to finish is the Lp performer series.( black and natural combination )

Mike, they are all complete. The reason they don't show the hardware on is that some are being prepared for Sanding, either to remove paint or stain. The Gon Bops are going to the original color of the wood, some need the crowns to be reinforced and, most need almas... and so on.
