Dan.... thats an excellent job. I've never seen better work with the body on and the engine in. You must have stood on your head for days on end. If you decide to come to Texas for the winter ever I could put you to work. Seriously! Even in the Summer....it aint no "Dry Heat"

Howard, that is a flattering compliment coming from a man like yourself. The frame took about 2 weeks to wire wheel. It is very difficult balancing the wire wheel when working on your back and worrying about gashing the fiberglass. The wire wheel would eat right through the fiberglass. I learned a lot about these solid axel cars from this project. I might have to take up youre offer on coming to TX. I'll work for free as long as you feed me

I forgot to mention we replaced the carpet, recovered the seats, replaced the convertible top straps and cleaned the interior of stripped screw wholes and fasteners. Man what a job.
