1991 Georgia SSP Restoration
Now that I have some time with the COVID-19 and staying at home I can log some of the progress on the SSP resto.
I picked up a 1991 GSP SSP Perm/Trunk #1195, Roof/Badge/Tag #813 back in June 2019. Thanks to Russ S. and Jim Y. for being excellent caretakers for the last decade or more, haha. The car needs almost everything but it's still not as bad as the KHP SSP was. No rust! I don't have a firm timeline for the restoration so it will be a spare time project. My personal opinion is GSP's are they are the best looking SSP's out there. This will be my 4th restoration and probably my last. I know most follow the Facebook groups but I plan to update .org/.net with this project because I prefer the format. More to come as progress is made! |
Keep us posted!
|
Looking forward to another great build
|
I can't wait to see the progress.

Wow! The KHP was an amazing job. Looking forward to more updates on this one. The interior parts are looking great btw.

SSP Virus Strikes again
Time to build a larger "Office" AKA "SSP part storage warehouse".
Be sure to get your helpers (Shelby & Lucas) involved. Hope to see this one soon when we can all be together at a show. keep posting pics.:) |
FINALLY !! this car will get the right attention. Russ had that car in PA and I had that interior in Ohio.The interior came out of a super low mile car and Russ bought it from me...then I bought the whole car and all of it back, then Russ bought it it all back lol. Glad to see you are going to town on it. I'm sure it will be fabulous when finished.
