Got the car in the garage today to get started on the fun stuff.....



I got the top up and cleaned it (decided to keep it after all).....after sitting in the down position for 4 months it has a lot of wrinkles to be worked out......But after cleaning it looks pretty good.....




Didn't get involved in any dirty stuff...Just dis-assembly....







Front Coil Springs......Nu Yawk style....along with the exhaust system......LOL





Stripped.........






Time for a nap!!

----Thanks Ken,,,Yup, those are the same calipers that CPP sold me for a stalled 65 Chevelle wagon pro-touring style car that Im now trying to re-group on and finish. Bought the kit about 4 years ago. Had the car 80% done and had a shop fire that some of you may know about. Ruined the paint and every piece of chrome on the car. I was just cleaning them up and re-painting them yesterday. Thought they were the same ones......Bill S

----The mounting plates are nicer, though. You probably got the deluxe kit!!!
