Default Almost done

A few years ago I started a thread called - 8 years later. Here we are at 11 years now and I am finally driving it. I could never have put the car back together without the help of several of you. You promptly, accurately responded to lots of questions. Some of you supplied answers and others supplied parts. A couple of you did both. For all of this, I wanted to say Thank You and share some pictures of where its at now. I still have several things to do, but he most part, its done.

As I found it in 2003

Great work, and love the different blue the colour takes on in low-light. Also, shows the importance of lots of photos for before and after comparisons. That's one regret I have, only had a few photos of car before I started to do it up. It was before the digital camera and phone age whereas now I have photos of every angle of a rusty I bolt I take out, how it fit before removal and how it looked mbefore going back!

Thank you all for the nice comments. The car runs pretty good too. The engine is a wolf in sheeps clothes. Might be my favorite part of the car. It is a 461 along with nicely massaged parts from SD and a carb by Cliff. Next up is a Tremec 6 spd.
