Shop move equals slowdown

So, I have been moving my shop from one unit to another in the same industrial park.. I was in the way of some contiguous space, and I agreed to move over... back in January when I wasn't busy... so, now that I have the Riviera in tons of pieces, it happens. On the plus side, it does afford me the opportunity to lighten the load, get some things cleaned out and set up the new shop for a clear division of mechanical and woodworking sides.  I have, however, been able to get set up enough so that I began reassembly of the 2.0L. Parts are going together, not coming apart.

This camper, with corian countertops, Bubinga inlay dash, new motor all mechanicals renewed, new paint, new rubber will be available for around 12-13K.  If someone wanted to put a deposit down, custom paint colors other than the sage green could be chosen. For a cost, the camper could be painted as an art car with themes of the new owners liking.
