Hang in there Bill.... restoring car is not an easy task. I'm sure the car will be beautiful when you're finished. I'm very happy this car is in great hands.

Thanks guys. With Jack in college now, my "fun money" is limited. But I figure I can slowly advance the progress without letting it languish as an unfinished project that sits untouched and tarped in the corner of the garage. I will get some pictures together and posted...

As an update, the rusted-out apron under the battery has been replaced, and the SMPV should be in epoxy primer shortly. If all goes well it will be coming back to my garage this week. I will be taking plenty of pictures of it, as well as the 85 GT parts car from Rich.

OK guys. Here is a teaser picture, with the car having been shot in epoxy primer. I have more in-progress photos that I need to sort through. I will probably upload them to my Fotki album. I helped Kris block sand it last night, and the car was sprayed again with _____ primer (I forget what he called it). The fenders and bumper will be hung today, and the electrical stuff installed back on the fender apron which was replaced. The car should be back under its own power again, and coming back to my garage (in primer) within the next day or so.
