Not much progress on the coupe, Alot of little things have been bugging me about it......so I said to heck with it and stripped it even more....lol Ive also been going over the wiring and cleaning up most of the parts, anyways heres a couple of crappy cell phone pics of how its sitting now, I was suppose to have it on the rotisserie already but 3 kids and being an apprentice take priority.

Wow. So sad to see it end like this. It had such potential.

End? I don't recall seeing anything about it ending. I prefer " on hold" as he said priorities have taken over and I commend him for recognizing his responsibilities. Can always go back to it when time allows.
putting together a little something special......stay tuned!

You do know where Canada is on a map, right? I'm pretty sure that is not heated storage.
I know he didn't say end. I hope to be wrong, I would love to be wrong, believe me. You should see the crap that I save. I know that thing could still be resurrected easily.

He's not parting that is. Or is that a frame up resto sorta speak.
If I had a coupe it would get that same paint job... Love the tutone.
Dont worry not ending the project just not making quick progress on it.
The car will be going to my friends shop to get battle boxes installed and the firewall welded up where the previous owner cut it out to make it an A/C car.
Also the door jambs are getting repaired that's why I removed the doors.
got the pass. side all cut out, I forgot to take a before pic but someone filled it with J.B weld was rusted through both layers which is odd because the rest of the car is so rust free and caked in undercoat.
anyway here's some pics
Driver side (havent cut this side yet)

I had faith in ya!
