Thanks Lou. I will be trying to get some small stuff done this week when the temps go up. I have to get my sons to move my car then I can start pulling parts and painting some as I go.

Update and New Goal

My son was able to pull my dash frame out. I have been working on the heater box. yesterday but had to stop. here is a few pictures. Also I have a new goal,I want to be able to enjoy my Charger so if I can get it up and running and drivable. The rest can be done a bit at a time. The lower A pillar is the worst rust I have found other than the drivers floor.

It has some rust for sure, but you know.....it's all fixable. I know when you first find it, it's like "how the hell am I gonna fix THAT?", but once you get to tearing it apart, it becomes evident that it's really not that difficult. Just remember, those dudes that built that car put their pants on one leg at a time just like you and me.

 

[old tired rebel]

Looks like your getting back on that GE, Great to see Cliff! Hope it all gos smooth with you and the build, Im looking forward to the updates.. It does take time i agree, but you'll be surprised how much faster it will go once you dig into it and especially if yous son is digging in to! Good luck...
