If this thing turns out like his carbs, it will be one large chunk-o-jewelry!

Thanks Dave.

I don't think any of the resto pro's here have anything to worry about from me just yet.

Again, this is my first-ever frame off resto, and I'll be the 1st to admit the learning curve is STEEP!

I hope to have some more updates posted before Christmas, namely I *hope* to have the body and the chassis reunited again by then. I'll post back in this thread again with further updates.

Thanks

Eric

Default Back from the alignment shop, getting closer

Got the car back from alignment today. All that's basically left now (save for a few relatively minor details) is to get tags on it and call my insurance guy to activate my coverage so I can get it out & about and start working out the bugs.

Once I have the mechanicals and a few remaining interior details all dialed in, it's off to the body shop. (still trying to locate a better pass. side fender w/o having to go repop)

I keep trying to convince myself that this isn't as cosmetically challenged as it really is, but that it's really a "period correct vintage patina"...it isn't working

Ah well...I've driven uglier. (besides...ugly can be forgiven if a car hauls @$$ )

Please pardon the dust, the dirt, and the GARBAGE repop dash pad, which will be replaced while the car is in the body shop with a restored original.

Tach's coming out too...can't even come close to keeping up with the engine.

Again, please pardon the dust. Everything will be clean and detailed by spring.
