Dyolf, Where are you? it is time to chime in with your assessment of the feedback you were inquiring. no time to lurk, come into the fold. The church of Chrysler has it's grease in your veins.

Welcome Dyolf, Have you done projects like this before? The question is how much experience do you have repairing what is needed? How much money do you have? You can find a decent driving car for twice the asking price that you can drive and enjoy now. You will spend 4 times the asking price...

Sorry hearing about your Dad, He gave you a nice present, IMO, suggestion, Get it running, replace the parts to make it a solid safe driver including rust, then go interior cosmetics to make it comfortable and clean. Then Enjoy!! No full restoration at this time. Just enjoy!!! You will feel...

Sherman and associates, Send me a PM

Thanks, The problem with the quarters is that they were installed 15+ years ago. They were the old style of skins which did not have the top body line and were overlap welded on the side. It would have been a cleaner job if butt welded, that was then and this what I delt with. After 15 years...

I am sure there will be many others on the site that agree to these comments. Nice work!! Congrats on the 1st place. You deserve it. I just hope mine will come out 1/2 as nice. The Focus you have to complete this restoration task for a person your age is astounding. That is a trailer...

I finally feel like I am making progress. The 1/4s are coming out great.

RoadRunnerMan, Thanks for the compliments on the deck work, I am going to work further tonight on the quarters. When this radio was made in 78 is when I graduated from High School. I was into the whole CB thing at that time in my life like others. It was the top of the line and my friends...

More parts painted this weekend. I also found a retro radio for my car. This is a NOS Cobra 40 channel CB AM FM 8 Track. This one will be going in the Dash and connected to a custom two speaker bracket replacing the single center speaker. The real sound system will be mounted in the glove box...

Just an update on what I have been up to. I have been busy but have started back again over the weekend, Here are some pictures. I have painted the parts using satin Imron industrial and should hold up for a long time. This coming weekend the rear housing will be painted. It had a lot of pits...

Kudos to the nice work done, First to the nice find of an almost rust free car and second to the attention to detail you are performing. One question, is this all being done in 7-8 months?

Buc, thank you for the praise and tips I will try it on another surface to check the grain and to see if I could cover it with the color of the panels which is called burnt orange in this case. I will also try the seat backs which are bad also. I have heard different figures on the...

I want to thank all for the encouragement. It has been so long coming to this point. I wish I could work on it more often.

some updates I am working on my quarter panels to get the last bits of rust out of the car. Here are some pictures to bring everyone up to date. I should be working on the final sanding this weekend and put the quarters in prime.

Prop, the car looks great, all the work is finally paying off. I cant wait until I get to the same spot. JAG

It looks like some great work going into this convertible. I love the bracing for the rotisserie support. I have used POR 15 a lot on several cars. Is that the chassis black or just the POR 15? I see that you are starting the assembly process. The regular POR-15 needs a top coat because of UV...

Donny, which post are you referring to? The Blue one on the flat bed from Hemi-itis? JAG

I love black cars and your friend's 70 looks great with the black steels. Unfortunately, I live in South Florida when it comes to black cars. You cannot touch a black car after 5 minutes in the sun without putting burn cream on. The other night I found some original paint from the car. It...

interoir panels Here are some pictures of the repair\modifications I made to the rear interior panels. All you purists beware these pictures are not for the timid. Considering these panels were modified (hacked UP) many years before I purchased the car. I feel that I saved them from the...

Fish, I would like to see some pictures of the RR Vert you are working on. and if anyone else has any pictures of their 70 RR or Satellite convertible that has not already posted one in this thread, Please post them. Thanks
