Hello Members...

I am in the process of restoring a 1964 convertible (327/365...matching). I am new to this...but looking forward to the restoration process!!! This is what she looks like currently, and will be moved to a different (warmer) garage in a few weeks. Looking forward to discussing this with other members as this progresses.

Cheers...

I am guessing you are right...and I may be doing the restoration for a very, long, time.

Takes me down memory lane to my first Vette, a '64 vert shown in my avatar.

Welcome to the forum and keep the restoration pics available. Lots of good advice on the process here in the forum too.

Welcome to the forum

I'm sure the restoration will be a lot of work, but think of how much fun you'll have doing it.

Where did you find it. It looks a tad dirty.
