Just picked up a 68 newport convertible, needs some lovin, already got some valuable info from the site, thanks muchly! look forward to visiting with you all!
 
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.
