61 Fury Restoration

[sb61fury]

My dad is going to weld the panels on the car . I am not doing that part. All I am doing is the block and air sanding on the car. I need to get a steering wheel cover for it but I do have a rule only clean hands touches that wheel if hands are filthy then do not touch.

You are very good at finding parts. When I search E-bay for parts for my 70 Imperial, I get 600,000 matches that say "also fits 70 Imperial". Do you offer lessons? arts book:

I work on the car on my off days from work. It gives me something to do. It also saved my dad a lot of work. I got to get my door w/s trunk card board , hood pad , clips I got to get the trunk mat but I might go with the carpet in the trunk instead of the mat , my gallon of black paint . Send my radio to have it converted to fm and jacks so I can listen to an i pod, mp3 or CDs . I have an extra radio to a 1961 fury that was tuned and lubricated by retired electrician that 1 will be sent in because that 1 works the 1 in my car does not work.
I will say this its really sad a lot of these forward look mopars ended up in the salvage yard or torched by the crusher.
