Well this is my first attempt at documenting a build so bear with me. Attempts to post pics, ect may be frustrating/amusing at times as I'm not too tech savvy.
The car is a 44k mile, all original, nothing special, 66 Belvedere 2. It's a 273, auto, bench, power steering, and nothing else car. It is however cancer free and really seems to be liking it's new owner. So far this car and I have been getting along perfectly.
This will be a far different build than any I've done in the past however. All my previous projects started with a trailer, a spot weld cutter, a pile of sheet metal, and an endless pile of beer cans. I've torn them to pieces and built cars from ****. This car however warrants a different mindset and attack plan than I'm used to. Previously the decisions were easy.... everything gets the Massengill treatment. Doing things less than 100% wasn't even an option. This time around though I need to employ moderation and learn to say good enough. I've got little kids, a business, and need another "project", like a hole in my head. This car is therapy.
This won't be an overnight build....but will stay (in theory) a running/driving build. I'm gonna need help from you guys on the proper way to say...."ahh, **** it. Good enough."
