    pretty much complete on the frame restoration as close to orginal as possible...
    gonna be a driver for my company for events to promote products and team...so super road worthy and safe

    Engine: 289 rebuilt with new 302 cam. still have not decided to stay with a carb or convert over to fuel injection.

    Tranny: rebuild with added overdrive

    front end suspension rebuild with new bushings etc....

    disc brakes all the way around

    new AC/heat.

    interior: thininking.....
    paint-something of the orginal c. sedan theme , deciding to keep the door trim or not....

    new wheels....

    gonna stay with the red theme through out the car...probalby add a second color to the upholstery. just not sure at the moment.

    will keep you all updated

    looking for a few things

    exhuast manifolds: mine rusted out and broke coming off...should be easy

    windsheild whipper motor...mine is froze up.

    overflow resivor

    Dr. B has helped already glad i found this resource.
