alan,
I think my car will be pretty damn good when it is done.
I'm sure it will.... I was only trying to help by pointing out an obivious error in assembly...
It's just as important in any restoration to have a correct, safe operable car as well as a nice looking car in my opinion.
And we do appreciate the help.
I'm pretty sure we would have caught that when it was time to install the K member and hook things up but it's much easier to fix it now. And it was the first thing we did this morning.

All in all it will take us about 100 man hours to get it back together. We would have it back to the customer in two to three weeks but the transmission will hold us up about a week. It won't be back from the builder that the customer sent it to until about week three.
Shouldn't this car be finished now?
Where's the updated progress pictures? Come on Tim, put down the wrenchs and take some pictures
Yes, we had hoped it would be done by now but honestly, we haven't done too much on it since the last posting.
The owner has done some stellar work on components he has resored himself which unfortunately had to be shipped via freight to us and that has taken some time. Some of the bigger components just arrived last week.
We are still waiting for the transmission and a few odds and ends. When everything is here, we'll jump back in and Get-R-Done.
Before you ask, yes there were things that could have been reinstalled but I'm sure you all know that it can be frustrating to start and stop and start and stop, etc.......
You are all going to love this baby when it's done!!! Frankly, like most of the cars we do, I wish we could keep it for ourselves.
I don't know about the rest of the guys in the business but, I have some pretty cool cars myself and they never seem to get worked on.

Anybody see the 12 per hour ad in MCG recently? Advertised they would do work on I think 62-65 stuff for that rate. I figure if people are puzzled by this company's pricing, that will really get out the boo birds.
I want my fair share
