...........hi mark, been working on car 2 yrs now (on and off), but have kicked it in to high gear recently! now that i have a garage to work in ,(see shop and garage talk) it makes life alot easier,the car WILL BE DONE by next spring........i will attemt to do almost anything myself, i stripped the car and prepped for paint, (has some imperfections),its not a concourse paint job,but it came out ok, i will have a few spots taken care of after i get her completely finished,it was my first attempt at body work, so i did not expect perfection. i welded up the holes and did all the body work,and my painter just shot the car for me.i had it back in one week !! i media blast all my own parts and refinish them. i have learned alot from ALL you guys on the board,theres so many freindly, helpful, SMART people here, its a great place to hang out and learn !!! my car wont be PERFECT, but i take pride in saying i did it myself ..........the only things i wont be doing myself are building the motor and trans ( lets leave that to the professionals!) ............THANX TO ALL ON THE BOARD FOR YOUR HELP, COMPLIMENTS, AND ENCOURAGEMENT.............................DAVEquote:Originally posted by Mark#6808:
Looking FANTASTIC Dave! I agree with George, the silver is vey sharp, it shows off the body lines, and the wheels...and on and on, two thumbs up.
How long have you been after the restoration now? Who's doing your work, or are you doing your own?
