this will be a driver, so this is mostly a mechanical restoration.
car has not had much in the way of TLC in many many years, its time.
it is going to be converted to a non a/c car. it doesn't work and it will cost me more to fix it. so i'm deleteing it.
I would like to thank my Father for keeping this car as long as he has, never selling it even when times were hard, and for giving it to me well before he passes this earth. I want to thank him for taking care of our family instead of this car as i grew up. For all the great childhood experiences, and car shows. (dad....next time your at my house....look at the pictures on the wall to the right of my computer)
so if any of you think this thing needs help because my dad didn't care for it, then you are wrong and you can just move on to the next project blog. He did all he could to support our family and to havea hobby at the same time. Kudos to you dad...and standing ovation!
I'm looking for help here, for adivse, for experience. if any of you have done these items before and ran into trouble, then tell me about it. otherwise....dont worry about the state the car is in....its not yours.
