Not a lot on my end, Waiting for the body guy to do his thing.
Mean while i'm getting the rear end done. All the front suspension

Took a ride the other day to take a peak at my car. It's coming along. Exterior is ready for primer.
They are working on the under side which should be done in a couple days. He hopes to have the
whole car in primer next week some time. Can't believe he has had it over a year now. Can't rush
these things. I'm hoping to have it back before end of June. Then the fun starts hand assembling
the entire car.

Now that is work. Upside down sanding is tough.

The body was blasted inside-outside-underside-everywhere
so shouldn't be to bad sanding. I'm not doing it anyway.

Nice car, Uncle Lee.

As you know, I'm also a fan of the Fairlanes and Torinos.

My 67 had a 796 hp 514 (bored and stroked 460). Brutally fast.


My current Fairlane is a 66 convertible with a strong pump gas 428, Edelbrock heads, mild solid roller cam, 750 carb on a ported Streetmaster. Has a wide ratio toploader 4 sp, 9" with 3.25 gears and a TrueTrac diff. Black with black top and red guts.

 

[Lee H]

Gotta love the over-under head lights. Sweet cars.

Used to be a 67 T Bolt Fairlane around here, made me drool!
