I noticed your rear finish panel looked restored...Did you do that or send it out....it looks nicely done..
Been a while since I’ve given an update. Still working on car, just slowed down a bit due to waiting on parts and such.
Starting rebuilding front suspension in preparation for engine and tranny. Engine is nearly complete and we’ve already tore down tranny and cleaned everything. Just waiting on rebuild kit to reassemble.

Also trying to repair one of the bumper to fender fillers. I’m using a piece from a junk filler to patch a missing chunk on another. Here’s a pic of the chunk I’m replacing, but I haven’t taken a pic since I’ve glued it in place. I’ll show a pic once repair is finished.

I took a leap of faith and ordered a new aluminum radiator hoping the mounting holes for core support and fan shroud would be correct. Upon delivery, I was pleased it fits correctly for both the support and shroud. Small victory.

Seems like I’ve been jumping around lately, but trying to make progress. Trying to find the right paint for dash and other interior trim parts that has flat/satin finish so I can get those pieces ready for assembly as well.
Thankfully, local businesses are starting to reopen so I was able to drop off my bumpers and lover vent window trim to get rechromed. I’m hoping those get done in the next month or so.
Where did you get the radiator?
Your car looks amazing! nice work!
WOW that looks Awesome...great job turning it around so fast..
