Thanks Tom: assume you are talking about Hill's in Racine. I'll have to look into that.

I've got the dash out, but my plans were to continue with body parts stripping, and then body off. That should happen this month, with most of the work left being the heater/wiper assemplies under the dash. (I've got everthing else that matters our, except a few engine side firewall items. I'll leave the engine/trans in until body off).

After body off, I will switch to the frame and running gear. My plan was to do that myself, then turn the finished undercarriage over to the body man.

My body is real bad: needs complete rear quarters, inner and outer rockers, lots of floor board work. The front fenders are good, but there is evidence of bondo in RF around headlight. There is two inch's of missing metal under where the hardtop sat on the trunk deck. Some of the body to frame bolts are rusted away to half their diameter.


This is a labor of love. I wish there was a manual that guides you thru this (like you comment about not removing the dash "l" brackets).

I've got a digital camera, so anybody wants to see a rusty bird, let me know, I can email.

I printed out the CTI form, so I'll be on that this week.
