Thread: Project $ 3 K Is Underway

Geesh, and I thought my Ex was abusive !!!!

Got the body installed on the frame today, and boy was I nervous. Felt like Jimmy Shine when he warned the Apprentices not to scratch that $ 30,000.00 paint job. We padded the frame and every surrounding thing with towels, masking tape and cardboard, and Don and I lifted while Dan guided it home. Surprisingly, we didn't get a scratch on anything.

I knew this thing was going to be low, but I didn't think it would be this low.....but I love it. The body is about as high as the rear tires, and it has a slight rake to it. Overall I am really thrilled with the outcome. Certainly not a showcar, but I like it anyway.

Tomorrow we are going to spend the day trying to fire up Don's T, and during the week I am going to wire my car and try to test drive it by next weekend. Here are some shots of it tonight, tomorrow I will push it outside for a few better pictures.
