    Don,

    That should keep you busy for what . . . a week?

    I remember building an all steel car. The parts sure fit better than most of these glass monsters today.

    I noticed the Wallace sticker. That was for the 1964 presidential primaries. I remember Wallace's campaigns in '64 and '68 vividly.

    Let's see, 84 years between the first three owners, that's right at 28 years each on the average.... Somehow I don't see that streak continuing here.

    Unloaded, title transferred, interior pulled, took back shelf out and all trunk panels (even found a receipt from 1963) Took the seat up to Tim Rein Interiors 2day and we cut it down and recovered (in 2 1/2 hrs). Got itm back here and stuffed it in and gained 4" of leg room. Great to know the right people who will #1 work 4 ya on a holiday, 2 drop everything else he had goin on, and # 3 when asked ahat I owed him he said "Get out of here, I catch on it later"
    Also saw the progress on Henry Rifle's (Jack) 33 coupe Tim is doin 4 him, really coming along great.
