Some Refinished Goodie Pics
I'm about to start taking my 63 FI Convertible all apart. I'm doing a frame-off and hope to complete it in the next two years. I'm not planning an NCRS retores, but then again I hope to not be too faroff the mark.
So far I have had the FI Unit rebuilt (John DeGregory), Distributor Rebuilt (Don Baker), Master Cylinder (Whitepost Restorations), and also acquired a complete ignition shielding set and restored seatbelts. I have been getting a few things done and out of the way. Next thing to go is the cluster as I begin to take the interior out first and then start stripping the body. It's one you call a one piece at a time resto up to this point. Time to get cranking now.
My sincere thanks to the above mentioned people/places for some great work.

Those are some very purty pictures!! :thumbs:
I didn't have the money to invest in a fully restored car so my do-it-yourself project is proceeding in the same direction as yours. One piece at a time. It's kind of like an installment plan, only I own all the parts instead of the bank.
Just remember, cathedrals are built one brick at a time. So are Corvette restorations. :cheers:

That's how I did my 34 Ford. Took me 3 years and just putting the finishing touches on it.
Thanks

Re: Some Refinished Goodie Pics (jims73)
Can you comment on the quality of the ignition shields? I'm looking for a good source for these items as my '73's are missing.
Don't know what he can has or can do for a 73, but worth contacting.
