67 Sat convertible

[torkflite]

I've owned this car since early 80's. I can't say it's been well cared for. Various reasons. 6 -7 years later the cam went bad. Parked it outside and put a car cover on it which didn't help it. About 5 years ago I stripped it down and took it to a company in Portland, OR where it was stripped in a alkaline tank. They did a great job. I then took it to a supposedly reputable restoration shop in Everett, WA. (learned about Yelp at this time) It was worked on intermittently over the next 1.5 years. The costs got so high and the work was not that great. I brought the car home and have worked on it very slowly since then. I'm now thinking of doing some metal work myself. I'll start small. I have many questions. I'll upload some photos when I learn how to do that.

Hello & good luck with your car!

Thanks. I'm not a Facebook guy so I don't spend a lot of time on this thing but I try to be sort of prompt when I get a note. I've been down with an infection in my lungs due to mold. It's called aspergillus fungae and I highly recommend using face masks for anything that involves dirt and damp.
