Well the 67's sitting on the frame, it's a good feeling.
Gary & Joe helped, after the wood beams and concrete blocks were removed, the entire drop took 5 minutes.

Now the body work begins.

How many more years will this project take Bill?

Looks like a marriage made in heaven ;-)

Wow. A huge step forward!!! Congrats!!!

There is no projected completion date but certainly more that one year.

I'm going to have 400+ hours just in the body.

And this always was a "work on it when I feel like it" project.

BTW, watch My Classic Car when the host asks "How long have you been working on this?" , you'll hear 5 years, 8 years, etc.

Thanks Andy. Yea, a real good feeling.

Now I can move the car around to get to the bodywork that needs finished - the door gaps and headlight door gaps , glazing and blocking the whole front end. At least finishing the outside from the firewall back will be a quick sand, like half a day. Bodywork takes forever.

And after looking at things today, adjusting the number of body shims is going to take a couple full days (you have to lift the body to remove the shims then tighten all the bolts before you can measure).

Sniff.....that's so beautiful....

Come on everybody...sing it with me......

Congrats. Let's get it painted!

Late summer, I hope.

The sooner you finish, the sooner I can come out to help.

Congrats on getting the body laid.

It looks like it was meant to be there Bill.
