I can't believe he's done all this in so little time! Brian is "Overhaulin'" Texas Style. :clap

making moves

:) Out here in the East in the Racing World we call it making moves. My grandad called it making hay when the sun shines. I like your work a lot better then Foose's but a TV show would be nice.:bow

Like the others, I'm impressed. I hadn't realized how old and slow I have become! I guess I let the rest of my life "intrude" too much, but Brian, you are doing some amazing stuff down there.

Thanks Guys!

I was not able to pick the car up yesterday because they were still buffing it. It will be done today though.

Well, now that Thompson has come and gone, it's time to get back to Jerry's build.

Here is a pic of it resting in my neighbors garage along with my 61...

Progress update...

I installed the headliner, sail panels, front and rear windshields, side glass, most of the interior, instrument panel, new tilt steering column (mockup - still needs to be painted) all exterior trim and rear tail lights. :deal

Tomorrow I will move to the engine bay and start putting everything together. I should be able to get her running tomorrow but I won't be able to drive it.....I stole the driveshaft for my car until I get my new one in. :D


Sorry for no pics again... too tired to take them.
