Jeff,
You did a wonderful job. My only question is does it still have the slim-jim in it?

Thanks for the compliment guys! I was pleased and most importantly the owner was very happy with how the car turned out.


mike nixon: No I didn't trade any tools, it would have been nice as it would have saved me some $$ on interest for the new air compressor I bought from him. I just wasn't in a position to afford to do so at that them.

tigercars: Yes it still has the Slim Jim in it. Before he loaded it up to take it home we took it out for a drive and they are an interesting shifting transmission...

Thanks! I don't have any other projects currently lined up, a few pending though.

The day before I had this one finished a guy that only live a few miles from me called and asked about doing a 69 GTO convertible that he's had for the last 20+ years. He came down and and looked at this 62, we talked about what it would probably run, and he told me that when I am ready call him and he would bring it down for me to start on. He even said that his wife was looking forward to having it restored and she knew it was something he always wanted to do.

Then the next day he came by and I could see by the look on his face, that something was up. Apparently after he told his wife what it would wind up costing, her enthusiasm quickly faded and she told him no way! Apparently she figures they can't afford it at this time...

Jeff, looks like it turned out great!!

Hey, if he's not already, be sure that the owner gets wind of the PY board...and the co-vention in Dayton!
