Thanks, I try and get out and drive and enjoy them as is and fix as I go

Most likely keeping them original, just added a leaf for convertible, update them as I go, convertible will most likely get new paint in Q5 for wife, and hardtop has some patina and rust, so might just clean it up and throw a clear over it and spend $$ and time on other areas

I’m in the Toronto area. If anyone knows decent shops within Ontario I’m always looking for quality shops when looking for repair, especially metal work.

Haven’t been too active, but have 2 projects in storage, time and money dictate the pace Few pics of them 68 Newport convertible 383 68 Newport hardtop 440
