the site is acting goofy, unless we are limited to 4 pics per post now? Used to be 10.

Nice you have skills Dave mad skills.

Awesome restoration work Dave.

And I thought old Mopars rusted . . .

Nice work Dave !

Ya, seems like only 4 pics per post now !

WTH ?

And patience....probably makes his own sandpaper from scratch.

That's gunna be the million dollar Ford!

I got to see it in person on Monday while in ND's area.

Amazing to see all of the work and new metal that has went into that car.

Almost anyone with a few tools can make a car look good driving down the street but the projects you work on turn old classics into basically new cars again.

These restos will last many years and not have cracked paint and bondo falling off after a few years.

GO Dave GO!

Thanks amigro.


Well, the boy and I jammed hard on the stang this morning and got some good outside work done ahead of another little thunderstorm (enough with the rain already!)

All the new metal is in the main body. she got another final cleanup blast this morning then got soaked down with about 1.5 gallons of 2K epoxy primer.

Looking good, guards, doors, hood etc, are you going to use new items or are the old ones serviceable? Whats next? Paint underneath and suspension?

I can work with the drivers door, passenger door will get a skin, we are ordering both fenders (new, repros)

We will start cleaning up and loading rear axle/springs, front suspension and steering with new seals, bearings, bushings, joints etc.

Meeting with the customer tonight to discuss paint details for under car, inside, under hood etc.

Outstanding Dave!

+1 on that!!

WE WANT PITCHERS!

And a pic of the Camaro would be nice too...

We are rebuilding all of the suspension, steering, brakes, bearings, seals etc.

Leaf spring packs rebuilt with new glide tabs, new leaf eye bushings. All new stainless brake lines going on, just new, new, new.

The new cast iron pieces such as calipers, wheel cylinders, master cylinder, brake drums, brake rotors, all getting cleaned, etch primed and painted with cast/blast paint to preserve the new cast iron look without rusting.

Upper and lower control arms, ball joints, bushings, strut rods, strut rod bushings, shocks, sway bar link bushings... Tie rods and sleeves..

Just miles and miles if new awesomeness.

I will try to take some pics tomorrow.

Hanging some new stuff on the car.

That's unbelievable craftsmanship.

Ummm...Dave, there is a dent in the gas tank.
