Thank You, Dennis. I truly appreciate your support and encouragement. It is guys like yourself and the rest of the fellas who showed love throughout our restoration that make the hobby fun. We plan to paint the stripe this week and get the body back home and on the chassis next weekend, I will certainly take photos and share them with you all. Bloomington in JUNE here we come!

Thank You Thank You! We have been busy working away on the chassis while the body was being painted. We can't wait to start putting it all back together. Ermine White BB coupes have my heart for ever.

You missed the opportunity to do a "build book". The process and the attention to detail is best appreciated in the pictures because words would not be adequate.

Absolutely beautiful. I think Belle is telling you to hurry up so she can go for a ride.

Hi Joey,

Your attention and application to the original production details is to be applauded. Please correct me if I am wrong about the location of your battery. It Is my understanding that all big block cars as well as the AC small block cars have the their battery located on the drivers side of the frame and that location requires the driver side wheel well to be modified for the battery access door. I noticed in your photos that you battery is located on the passenger side. If you plan on moving you battery it will be easier before the body is back on the frame.

But, this is a '67 427...battery box is exactly where it belongs.
