Thanks a bunch Don....Well keep posting the progress notes....
Hope everyone's enjoying their weekends and 4th!!! Couple updates.
Were making progress and gotta say the car could have been patched because its super solid but wanted to do things right and we used full pans. It was a pain in the rear to remove all the spot welds and put in the pans, but a couple days of persistence, and were almost there. Were gonna use seam sealer to meet up with the proper spots, then paint the entire underside. Avery ans Avex took off with the welding once we did a couple test spots. Having a lot of fun, filling a few holes along the way too....
Hannah is moving on to the paint which is next.....

As Tom said, you have a lot to be proud of there Plum!! The car is cool! The family is what life is all about! You're using the car to build memories the kids will have all their lives! 
Thanks guys, were very lucky
to have a great pit crew.... The boys are trying to kick off a small restoration service to save up for their own cars. Alex wants a 62 c-10 I think to start on, Avery is a Impala fan. Anyone looking for help with things on the east coast, let them know, their pinning their eyes on Brian!!!....Hannah and Cameron, well they just want their $2 pr hr to buy candy for now hahaha.

Kurt, you can send Avery and Alex down to Texas to help me out. I'm letting another employee go tomorrow because they say they can do the work but when it comes down to it they don't have a clue!
Awesome progress and great job!

Plum It's great to see your kids holding tools in their hands instead of Game controllers
