Yes I plan to let the whole family cruise around in it. They have been keeping up on the resto since tear down began in my garage. When The Kokomo Indiana Chrysler Transmission plant has their annual cruise in next September I plan to let them drive that there.

Was he going to rebody due to cowl or frame rail issues? I find is very interesting that it sat outside that long in your climate.
btw I'm partial to 68 bodies (and 69 a12 rr's) your car is a great example!

No. The original owner is a Tool Maker at a factory in Logansport. Has been for years. The nephew is into sales of some kind in Florida. That's why the car sat so long at his Mom and dad's place. He went off to Florida way back when. When I first saw it back in 89 the windows were up.

Yes. Frame rails front and back just scrathes the surface on the issues. Check out one of my earlier responses. I felt great when I got done and the car would run straight down the road. Hands off the wheel.

Hello all, I know this is an older post. My Feb LA built is a decal. I was was lucky enough to get my car back from paint shop jail, before this "shut down". My question is do the C's get applied first or does the long bottom go first? I would think the long bottom, but if someone could add a close up of an original?
Thank you
Ron

My 68 was tape, when paint Ed in 1981 they didn't have tape/decal available so it was painted satin black
