It appears you and I are doing the same thing, to the the same color car at approximately the same time. New everything, rusty bolt replacement in the engine etc. The only thing we did differently, I bought a wrecked car to cannibalize parts from along side it and went completely stock. Good work sir, looks fabulous.
