Thanks, i have lots of pics but i havent figured out how to post them yet.

Bought it from a friend of mine, been sitting since 1989. 70000 mile car, needs love but its a great start for a resto. not sure how far yet i wanna take it, right now im patching some rot and band aiding it up makin it safe and road worthy so i can drive it a little before i decide and tear it down. been a mechanic my whole life (im 41) decided i want a project car and got this for a song (i think). i have restored a bike but never a car so this will be my first.

Did you get the 4th cop wheel with the car?

 

[kawdude]

The cop wheels are loaners, we put those on so it would roll, i have the original wheels and hub caps for it. the cop wheels will go back to the owner to be put on a 76 monaco.

Very cool. I am trying to fix mine up also. it's too hot right now in south Florida to work outside without getting heat stroke.
