Well, I guess I had better update my journal. Thanks for the comments. Car was finished October, 2007. She has won at many big and small car shows. But she is a driver. Took first place in June at Reno, in the recessed grill category...even though she has a '73 grill.

These are pics of teardown and restoration of some parts.
Since I'm near finished, it may seem a little disjointed.

I'm near the end of this restoration journey. I wish I had started a journal sooner; better late than never. I actually started this project in March of 2005. Here are some early photos.
