Canuck Posted September 22, 2020 Posted September 22, 2020 Welcome! You came to the right place. Great group here. I'm in Summerland, BC. Next year in September our Western Meet is in Montana. We'll have members there from 4 provinces and 10 states. It's a fun time with great people even if your car isn't ready for the trip. I organize the Western Meets so send me a message if you have any questions about it. Quote

Canuck Posted September 24, 2020 Posted September 24, 2020 Looks like the original colour was Misty Turquoise like my 70. Quote
Dtret Posted September 24, 2020 Posted September 24, 2020 That’s awesome work. Stuff I cannot do. Great job. Getting it back on the frame will give you guys a ton of satisfaction. Great to see a father son project coming along. AWESOME. Quote
