In October 2020 the pipes and mufflers arrived. Thanks to Dave, I got a new hanger for the right side. When things warm up a bit, I'll hang the pipes. Stay Tuned...

Back in September I did a little work on the interior. Just now getting abound to posting something... I pulled off all of the trim pieces that surround the headliner and gave them a fresh coat of gloss black. I'm all about saving money and not getting into things I don't know...

It's exciting pulling out the back seat. I found 2 broadcast sheets in mine. One under the carpet rear pass side and the other behind the rear seat.

You are off to a great start.

I used a small brush, testors silver model paint and a steady hand.

Yeah, I cleaned and painted everything. Not sure how I feel about the chocolate. Time will tell.

Getting the dash back together. I forgot how much of a pain in the tokus the wiring was. I'm saving the center section until I can get a stereo. Thanks for looking. Stay Tuned...

Looking good Rd

Thanks guys!

Killer!

Nice work

Thanks guys, Appreciate the positive! Well, after a little nervousness, I gone and done it ... First I gave the crusty pad a good sanding just to give the adhesive to bite to, then wiped it down with a lysol wipe to get it clean. Then measured out about what I would need to cover the dashpad...

Thanks jr! I gave up on counting the days. Today I decided it was time to work on the dash pad. It's got a few splits and cracks with exposed foam. This should be an easy fix. and of course, I'll be changing the color. I went to Wally World and bought 2 yards of vinyl, some adhesive...

Looking good T&T!

Tell me about your exhaust. She's got a great sound.

Beautiful Dart Barry.

Looking good. Keep going and don't get discouraged. Try to think of it as a bunch of little projects instead of one big one. I like your antenna idea. I was saying to myself water is gonna lay on that hole, then I scrolled down to see you have it covered. :thumrigh:

That hood is going to look great! Nice sketch btw.

Day 74 I wasn't happy with the left corner turned out so I grabbed the dremel and smoothed it out. Then went at the bottom corner. Then I started grinding on the right corner to prepare it for fiberglass. After applying the filler. While this cured, I removed the deck lid...

Wow, you really have come a long way in a short time! Nice.

I started working in the drainage trough in the trunk today. I'll have the get the dremel out to take care of this a little better. For some reason the driver side is much worse than the pass side. Before After. I may show this area a little more attention. Stay Tuned...

thanks tx

Thanks jr but I've already got the fiberglass on and sanded down. Keep in mind that this is my first time doing body work. So, I'm guessing that I'll need to use Bondo to get these areas smooth? I'm just so glad the holes are gone. Thanks for looking...

Looks good! I think you are pulling our leg about not doing this before.

Today I thought I'd finally go after some of those rusty hole issues. I've never done body work before as you may be able to tell so please be gentle. I'm on a budget and this car will not be a show piece. I have no welder or welding skills so filler will have to be the ticket. Fiberglass is...

Today I put on the newly surfaced drum on the left front and installed a new shock absorber. Then I moved over to the right side and put on the wheel cylinder, brakes, drum and other shock absorber. Stay tuned...

Thanks for the positive feedback guys! Day 68 - 15 June Feeling a bit run down. All I was able to do was pull off the front wheels and drums. Then pulled off all the brake hardware and wire brushed everything down. After this, I had to button it back up. Day 69 - 1 Aug Driver side only. I...

Looks great Dennis.
