Man, I just love that color gray. I remember how this car looked while it languished on Craigslist... so glad you got it and did such a wonderful job. Hope and expect to see it in person this summer.pebbles wrote:disassembled the rear of the car, wet sanded and polished and installed a new rear bumper

I almost:
1. Got it transferred to my name - but I have to send some mumbo jumbo certified letter to the Prev Owner and have him return it unopened. Argg. CA DMV.
I already have a letter that he sold it to me. Arggg
2. Almost had my muffler installed but Josh the Muffler man was too busy to do it all week. I went to O.C. Muffler and he will install it tomorrow when the muffler arrives. It looks sweet. A DynoMax Super Turbo Muffler
3. My o2 sensor install. Delayed till tomorrow with the muffler. My car is finally drivable.

Nice cars Dale, wish I wouldn't have been so lazy last summer and I was driving mine.
I did finish blasting all the chasis parts and have them painted and ready to go back on.
Waiting on spring pads from Dean so I can put the front end back together.
Patch panel on one front fender today and will do the other tomorrow.
Finish the body work and pick my colors.

I feel your pain, went through the same problem here with my 61 Vette, I had a bill of sale from the daughter, a death certificate from her father that passed away, a copy of the will indicating the car went to her, and a certified letter from her indicating that they misplaced the title when cleaning out his house. They still made me send a certified letter to her house and told me to tell her not to accept it. Then they filed for a title without all the back up paperwork. Go figure.............Solex68 wrote:I almost:

Finished putting it together.. Took it to Kevin D's place to put in the windshield. But by the time I got there I didn't want to put it in.. That was a fun drive with the wind in the face..
