I have been working on the project for approximately 2-1/2 months,
and hope to have the car back on the road in another month or so. The floor
pans definitely need to be replaced, as does the trunk floor, but I plan
to attack that problem next Summer when the weather is too hot to drive
the car. For now I just want to get it back on the road.
I am also in the process of converting the front brakes to discs, which
I decided to do after I already had the drum brakes back on. My goal is
to have a funcional rolling chassis by the end of next weekend, and start
putting the body on the weekend after next. I also need to paint the firewall,
sand blast the inner fenders, and rebuild the rear brakes.
I would like to extend special thanks to Butch, Cindy,
and their family for letting me work on my car at their house. Thank you
for your hospitality, help, and patience.
