C4 or whatever?
mustang front
z in rear
4 bar in rear w ford crosleaf
last but not the least 4 in chop
boxed frame
caravan top
7 in front stretch
quite a bit of new and repaired par
thats most i can rember, need info on a good column
got a whole pickupload of parts overfull

this is close to a roller except for steer ing not hooked or column, not exactally what i wanted, but health and time to live make a mostly done car a much better alternative

Post by: eugenevik on November 23, 2007 11:30 pm: looks like no rain in forecast for several months so off we go :lol:
Title: RE: car delivery today
Post by: eugenevik on January 02, 2008 3:02 am: ordered a few parts, headders , rad, grill shell duce, and some wire wheels
working on the body and unfortunately it is turning out fairley well so I may be forced to paint color??!!!! dont want it mint but straight and mostly scratch free would be good!! that 2 years auto body at NDSCS seems to be finally paying out!!!!proabbly before most of you all were born??

so i hope we get weather in the 20's so I can heat my shop the car is 50 ft from the woodstove so it is quite cold for bondo ops its only a 1 gallon car so far
