Have put a ton of work into it.Stripped to bare metal,frame and suspension have been powder coated,engine and trans have been built back to stock specs,have 15" panasport wheels and tires with low mileage on them. ..Have all the original parts to finish the build. New lower a posts,sills,rockers left qtr panel,floor pans rear valance and trunk floor.new battery box.camber compensator,new gaz shocks..etc no overdrive.Many parts new and used.95 plus percent complete. Car was running but I have sent the carbs off to Joe Curto for a rebuild. Expect them back by mid to late march.I do have video of the car out for a spin so it will run.Would like to get 8k.Please note the hard top is not included.It was sold several months ago....

Looking good!
That chassis photo brings back good memories of the hard work of cleaning the chassis back to bare-metal, then zinc primering (many coats), then top coating, and fitting the newly powder-coated components back on. Great feeling of progress. Then it seemed almost a shame to put the bodytub back on to cover all that work up
Great to see such dedication on the early cars
