"......You put part of the pick up in just for a teaser too !! ......"
LOL I really don't have anything nailed down yet, but I'm hoping to break my normal pattern and find something that is done (at least body, maybe paint and upholstery) that I can just bolt my fun parts on to and drive rather than dragging something home that needs a complete build.
Body work has never been one of my strong areas and the last 3 projects I farmed out the body work. The first shop (which is still in business) had my 57 in body shop purgatory for about a year and I was not very happy with the final product. The shop I had do the second project did an outstanding job, but had over expanded and when the economy collapsed they went out of business. Then there was the guy who did the work on the 83 El Camino (body line changes etc) …….he also did some great work. I happened to drive by his shop last week only to find it was now a repair garage. He had retired and moved to Missouri
That was actually one of the reasons that I’ve decided to sell the 64. It’s going to need a bit of work, especially as I was planning on going back to black on it and I really don’t want to deal with finding a new shop and hoping for the best.
.I've NEVER seen a car come from the factory that couldn't be improved.....
