    Love those Fairlanes!! Looks like you have a great project going with lots of fun. To me all the fun is in creating "your" car the way you want it. When the build is complete, I'm usually ready for the next one. Thanks for sharing, and please keep us posted with pics, we all love to see your progress!

    Been a while since I updated this. Here are some pics of the progress. Most of the interior minus the carpet and front seets has been removed. The engine and transmission were pulled last weekend, and I tore the engine down completley this week. Should be ready to go to the machince shop by Monday. Hope to have the rest of the body stripped and ready to go off to the body shop by mid october. Enjoy the pics and let me know your comments.

    Looking good so far.

    I Got a big kick out of the little one with the ratchet. Start them young and you'll have a gear head for life.
