William, I think you stole that thing ! Great deal...I know everyone has commented on the 1970 front bumper , BUT, so you are aware as I saw you mention in an earlier post, that you read " that the 1971 should have square headlights. " Not sure if you mispoke , but just so you dont think the whole front end is frankensteined its just the front bumper. The 1970 front bumper has the round directional, which you have now, the 1971 has a rectangle directional. Not a big deal right now change some day if you wish , but priority, get it running and driving and enjoy it, make changes as you go .. good luck look forward to see it progress .

LOL I know that area well my old stomping grounds. I know others that live on Paisley as well, also bought my first race car from a family on Paisley. My mother actually worked at Cottrell Paper Company on Rock city Rd right by the falls.

Interesting and the world gets smaller .. I was born in Syracuse moved to Ballston Spa at about age 2 , graduated from High school there in 88 left there about 2009 but my family is still there in he house we grew up in.

Yes you don't want to risk that, if there is anything I can do from here at a safe distance supplies or anything , disinfect and safely deliver etc.. let me know. She is literally around the corner.

When it gets closer will definitely be in touch would love to check it out.

LOL I didn't realize that was yours .. right over my head.. we stay down off of Lake Arrowhead Rd .. May be in touch to stop by and see it .

Hi Rick, Welcome.. solid looking car, love the pics and keep up the good work!

Latham is a decent area really like it here .I was hoping to make the Syracuse Nationals, did they cancel that yet ?

Thanks All, Will be down there in September I think is when we go this year , love it down there .. I hope I see it Roaming the streets would like to check it out, we stay in North Myrtle. It really is gratifying ..At times you think it will never get done looking at all the totes of parts hoping to remember where they go, LOL .. I think I may put the passenger side mirror on just used to using them nowadays. Bump guards not sold on yet I will be there if we have it ,,really looking forward to it ..

Thanks all.. really looking forward to Carlisle now that I am ready .

Hey All, Hope everyone is doing well and staying healthy. Its been a bit since an update. Time is getting closer to being able to get the cars out and need to get this done. So made some progress did a lot of waiting on parts being shipped, delays , damaged trim ( because its the thinnest stuff on the planet) sand blasting and painting a few remaining parts. I am using the original front bumper I have for now, not perfect but really good shape. i just wanted a new one to match the new back bumper, but it can wait for now. Got the new inner wheel wells , new wheel well trim , new rocker molding and new lower molding installed, car buffed and polished (needs a little more to get rid of some swirl marks) good enough so it could see the light of day this mothers day and stretch her legs a bit. Still have more things to work on as it will never be done but the majority is done to make it respectable. Still a bit of detailing and cleaning but for now was good enough to get it out and enjoy a nice day. Well all... here she is , after a few progress pics you can see how she looks. Thank you all for looking , following and helping along the way , it's not over and I will post more stuff as I do things but overall the big part is completed. I cant wait to see you all in Carlisle hopefully, that is what I was shooting for and she is good enough to go now. It's not perfect but for what we had to work with work space , painting environment etc.. I am very happy with results. As always thank you all for looking. Sand blasted and painted fender braces Sandblasted and painted the hood latch ...whoops forgot the pictures of the painted hood latch Some before, after and during pictures of the bumper brackets from crusty to looking like brand new the new inner wheel well installed after some wrestling with it .. And the final pics after hours of massaging, filing, trimming, installing ,uninstalling all while trying not to scratch the paint.Finding clips that work best etc.,,, and trying to make them look halfway respectable.. But here she is . Here is the before and after for for those that have missed it Before After

Hey All, Hopefully everyone is staying safe and healthy. Made some more progress since last time. Have everything almost completely wet sanded , buffed the hood for now was easier to buff while off the car will finish when all is together.Also getting some other smaller parts cleaned up. Like the front side markers. Started to clean and one was looking real dirty so I popped out the lens and cleaned it all up. Now the cleaner one is the dirty one and Iwill end up doing that one too, need to make it look the same. Any way here are some pics. As always enjoy and thanks for looking. Just the front fender braces rusty nasty , so sand blasted and painted. The first pic is the cleaner of the 2 side marker lights to start , the second pic was the dirtier one cleaned up now, the third pic you can see the difference and why I need to do the other one now. Here is the hood wet sanded and buffed before installation, will still do final buff after installed and for final clean up. Here is the hood finally installed with the front end all back on , still need to do inner wheel wells when they get here , tighten things up , buff fenders etc. but got the hood on and all the gaps looking pretty good. I am getting closer. Carlisle is getting close.
