71 TA getting the reboot
 

Hope this new thread keeps moving ahead. Starting the pre-assembly and getting to know the parts and pieces I retrieved from the Memphis scammer...

Can't wait to follow this one!!

Not sure I like fit of that spoiler ;)

I would spend the weekend reorganizing and cataloging and all the parts you have and what you're missing

Great idea to start a new thread. Good luck moving this thing forward. All you need is a little good luck charm....

Well hey now......

I've decided based on Chucks previous advice to make it a roller before she hits the body and paint booth.

Working my way from back to front. I'll get the rear end on, leaf springs attached. Then attach subframe cleaning up the underside using Bobs diesel power wash method.

More to follow....

This forum should be a great resource for you

Best of luck to you Mike.

I've never been successful at doing full-on restorations, hope you're up to it. :thumbup:

You need more crap in your garage! LOL

Looks like fun to me!

Good luck to you on the assembly Mike.

Mike if you need help with organization call Norwood. Lol, no seriously would love to help you get things in order. Teri

Messy stuff about to begin...

Thanks for all the support. Never took on a project like this before. Not getting any younger either. ..

I'm thinking our Wisconsin trip is cancelled

Still going to get a Wisconsin run in. Need to soak overnight in diesel fuel. And another coat in morning and a good hot water power wash. Shouldn't be an all day affair?

Good weekend for both!

You need to get a hot pressure washer. I used one on a few of my cars and they came out great.

Got a hot water source at 140f to give it a go. Got my diesel juice and Tyvek suit and scrounges...

Red oxide primer too. Not going for vintage. Haha

Payoff after a day...

Getting ready to send car to painter. Going with original color Cameo White.

What's the best paint and primer combo?

What's best on bottom for primer? Has a little sheen from factory.

Who makes a good product?

I didn't know you had those skills Mike? Looks like you're not wasting any time. Good luck with the project.
