Brought the body home Thursday night .
Started doing the body work Sunday after church.
few more
plan on doing the final blocking on it tonight and tomorrow and it will be painted Saturday morning.
I think it will be a nice one. I think he is going to have way too much money in it for my taste. I think he said he has about 60K in it now and I introduced him to my interior guy the other day and I think he is going to make this a winter project finishing the interior up for another 7K +. so plans have changed on this project as far as we are concerned. I cannot tie up my garage that long. not only are we going to tear my Duster down and re-paint it, we are working on doing 2 more 40 something coupes, a possible 76 Maverick with a lot of rust and working on maybe doing this 67 GTO for a friend of ours. I need a bigger place to work out of. Plans to build a 40x60 garage behind the house may be speeding up a little faster than I had originally thought. Anyway I will post pics on this coupe when it is painted and after it gets finished with all the work he is planning on doing to it.
been real busy lately but finally got around to these pictures of the body after we painted it on Saturday. Brought it back home Sat. afternoon and put it in the garage. In the process of buffing it out tonight and tomorrow and then it gets to go home. The owner has changed his mind a little and we are going to be putting it back together. At least the majority of it. Went to a car show Sunday and picked up 2 more jobs. A 48 Chevy and a 65 Mustang. gonna need a bigger place. here are some pics.
couple more of the rod and a pic of the Stang. That belongs to a buddy I went to school with.
Kool project, made even Kooler with your contribution to it .
Keep up the great work and keep us posted on it and any other Kool jobs that come your way .
After all we're all 'Car Guys' and love to see them come together

tomorrow morning I am going to load this coupe up and take it down to a guy I know who done the exhaust work on my two cars and see about putting the exhaust on it. Maybe I can drive it on then instead of using the winch on the trailer. See what this little coupe sounds like.

I like the front wheels you need to put a matching set on the rear.
Make me want to get busy on my F150. Can I come by for a weekend. I'll buy the beer and bbq.
See the poor thing needs some help it has a identity issue.

those rear wheels are going on the front. They are 17's and there will be a set of 18's on the back. There are also going to be a new set of tires on it. It is in the shop now.

yea I was just kidding about the 'yellow' front wheels. I do like the steely look. I'm more of a hot rod not street rod kinda guy.
think I am going to put them on my John Deere tractor
