it never ends

I planned on leaving the engine in place because the engine bay area was painted a few years back and looked good. I was going to remove the trans for a rebuild and said WHILE I AM AT IT just a few more bolts and the engine is out so I can repaint it all now.

And I thought my frame was rusty. I'm glad i'm not the only one having the fun with the frame off. Keep us posted on the progress.

See what you did

now you gotta do everything, clean, repaint from the frame up. But just think, when you're done. . .it's showtime!

i was just about ready to rip out the entire interior of my 69 before i came to my senses. instead i took a shop vac, leather cleaner, and a couple tubes of armor all. looks good enough for me right now.

actually the frame is in great shape. only a little surface rust, I was going to blast it but it cleans up nicely with a wire brush, you gotta love theese southern cars.
