1966 convertible project
Couple years ago I bought 1966 Convertible project. It is not #-match big block and there is some work to do, but nothing enourmous. Car has been at painter quite a long time, but maybe in a couple of months it will be back in my garage.
Pictures you can find from this link.
This will be done restoration style, but besauce it has lost original engine an trans there will be some period correct modifications. It seems that this car has wild history. When body was soda blasted we found many scars on it.

It is very interesting way to do it, but it is old repair. I think it is made maybe 1970´s or 1980´s and it was under very old paint job. No sign any problems and hope that it will stay that way.

That's pretty good-looking.

It was time to install dash. Rivets are now visible, but they vill be painted to body color later to night and then it is like factory istallation. Also ugly white steering wheel will be changed to 1966 style wheel later on.
