I like your avatar. Read Frank Sheeran's book last year which left no doubt in my mind.

As far as I'm concerned, the case is closed and the lid is nailed down permanently.
There's also a video of Frank on his death bed telling the last details.
Did you read the part about Biden? That dirty clocksucker!
Now he's the V.P.

Now it gets ugly

Here are pics of the hidden areas of the exterior and all of the interior.
This is where it gets nasty. Most of my time will be spent on the interior.
I'm rounding up bits and pcs. as we speak.

Original radio replaced with aftermarket. I have original. Missing pcs. enroute now.

I'm looking for a nice Panel Shelf Trim.

Clean jambs

Notice the trunk key on the floor.

Clean rockers

Clean doors

Complete interior pics. Saturday

 

[mr. fix it]

I am very happy for your purchase. Congrats!:yaayy:

Stan, Are you qualified to work on wiring ???? :campfire: :nono:

Where's Stan's post that says he's just gonna driver her as is. That's the funniest thing he's ever said here. Took less than one day to start nit picking every little thing.

I can't wait to see her when she's done, Stan.

 

[Homerr]

Eh, take some time to bond with the car. Get to know the quirks. Decide if they add to the experience or not.

In the immortal words of Phil Rizzuto, Holy Cow! I am away all week and I come back and see this!

I'm happy for you, Stan. Perfect colors, even if they aren't in perfect shape at the moment. Awesome!

In 1993 I bought my Cutlass, much like the condition this one is in, as a driver, vowing to keep it as is. That didn't quite work out that way. The restoration slide, once it begins, is almost unstoppable.

Have fun and enjoy it wherever it takes you!

I can stop anytime I want.
And yes, Homerr, yes, I need to let the initial irrational exuberance to slow down. Immediately. Good advice.

Now that you own one, this is invaluable reading:

Like I said, the interior was never attended to.

Dash pad is NICE, though. One unobtanium I don't have to worry about. Avon Skin-So-Soft you say, Marian?

Steering wheel - not bad.

Vinyl? Shot. Looking for turquoise Indian blankets

 

[commando1]

Well, thanks, Marian.

 

[tallhair]

seatbacks look to be in very nice shape

 

[detmatt]

I'd be proud to own this one!

 

[Stormer]

All the bright work is in great shape on those seats. I could probably sell them and recoup the cost of the whole car.

 

[tallhair]

Yeah I've see a lot of damage on those from people putting kids and whatever in the backseat or people climbing in etc .. my drivers side had a pretty good dent. So major bonus for you

These screws are going to hurt my arm when riding back there when I come down to visit.

LOL
