My dad and I have been talking about building a father/son project for years and little over a month ago he bought that project... A '64 Dart GT 50th Anniversary. Then a heart attack took him away on October 5, 2010. He hadn't even had a chance to even try to fire the thing off (supposedly it runs) He was always busy working on everyone elses ride. He was supposed to handle the mechanical side of the project and I would take care of body/paint. Now it looks like I'll be doing the entire build...

I'll be hunting the forums for info and advice... Stay tuned for project progress.
 
That sucks. I know how you feel. My father died last year with an uncompleted 34 Ford Victoria. He worked on it, of and on, for about 15 years. He probably had $75,000 into it and we ended up selling it on Ebay for $20,000. Sad.

I look forward to your progress, though.
 
Welcome, and sorry for your loss... I lost my Mother on 1-1-10 due to a heart attack. Keep us posted on your build!

I'm very sorry for the loss of your dad. I know nothing we say can take any pain away but I hope you end up getting a good support system here. I wish you luck with the restoration project.

If I can help please ask. There are many on this site that will help any way they can. If you continue on this site you will sometimes see a Good Guy Alert. This is because others want you to know some really good people that will go overboard to help. This site is filled with people that will help you as they have helped me and I'm almost 62. I have a 69 Dart so I'm in there with you. Hang in there and do as your dad would want you to.

Just thinking out loud.
 
Welcome to the site buddy. I am very sorry to hear about your dad. This makes me cherish the moments that I spend with my father as we work on our father/son project. He is the world to me as I'm sure your dad was to yours...Good luck with the build, we will help you any way we can.
