NOV 5, 2003 - The shop has started to strip the paint off of the body and I got a look at the floorboard which looks like it's in excellent condition. As you can see, there has been some prior bondo on a few spots.

The gauge cluster is done and on it's way back. Here are some before pic's of the gauge cluster, Ill put up the after pic's when we get it back.

Took some pic's of the console which will be shipped out for restoration soon

Last but not least I received the Intake and Exhaust Manifolds

NOV 11, 2003 - The engine is coming along nicely, take a look at the below pic's of it so far. She's clean's up nice!

Plus, I finally confirmed this is a number matching engine....this is a pic of the my car's vin stamped onto the engine.....YES!

And here is a pic of the Carb I received, Carter AVS model 4618, exact model that this car came out of the factory with. Still need's to be rebuilt tho.

NOV 25, 2003 - I sent the console to Jason Pfeifer in PA, a guy who is known for restoring console's. I send it via UPS packaged well and he got it today all busted up....take a look at this.

Basically beyond repair. Now I have to go fight it out with UPS and start looking for another console, ARGH!!!!!1

The doors, front quater panels and trunk are all off the vehicle and we will be getting the undercarriage sandblasted this week. I also have ordered new vinyl for the seats, new carpet, and new door panels from Legendary....should be here in about 6 weeks. I have Just Dashes doing the dash, both upper and lower, the armrests, and the upper door panels....should be done in about the same time period. Ill post some new pic's soon.
