Check out my gallery! Nuts and bolts are bagged and labeled, parts are stacked and ready to be cleaned fixed and put back together, rust is ready to be sent home! I might add that 20's are ready to leave my wallet as fast as they enter or mabe (probably [definatly]) faster than they enter!

Looks good!

Judging from the way the exterior looked, I expected to see much more rust that you have. Looks like it'll be a decent project!

heck , why did you decide to fix it now? There is still a lot of good metal left on those floor boards. I can lift the floor mat and see the road go by on my 66. Works great in the summer...................Looks great, keep the pictures coming. I am about 4 months behind you. Ross

20 to 100s for sure. A friend just about has me talked into having it walnut blasted. I wonder if they would take a couple of bags of pecans in trade?
