New Project 63 Thunderbird!
Hello All,
Don Jr here (son of Itolduso, Should I admit that?)
I just picked up a new project since the "mr Blue" T bucket is done. The new project is a 1963 "bulletbird" T bird. I got it for a super low $600! No engine with the car (originally a 390 car) Cruisomatic Transmision, 9 inch rear. No rust except rear quarter area. Easy enough to repair. My thoughts are full air ride suspension (low enough to squash ants) built 390 FE engine. Perhaps just a suede paintjob or perhaps a heavy flake roof. Tuck and roll interior with Astro Supreme wheels and thin whitewalls. Your thoughts? Let me know what you think. I will keep posting the progress. Thanks!
(Yellow bird below is the goal)

".......So sanded it all down and resprayed. ......" Been there. done that on a couple of paint jobs over the years. Usually took me a couple of days to get over being mad before I started...
