Getting The Garage Ready


The hardest part of any project.......Cleaning out the garage and making room for the new project.  The Droptop moves to the front garage to keep the Studemino company.

Rear Garage

The Engine

This is the truck I traded for to get the engine.  The guy I got it from said it was a built 454. Jamie McLeod of fayetteville, NC Took the engine apart to check it out befor we installed in the car.

Owner was going to make a Rat Rod.

Engine apart for inspection


First visit to see car

I had not seen the car in several years a friend of mine had started the restoration but had not finished due to poor health.  He was a street rod builder and had sub framed with a Nova Clip and added a 9in Ford rear end.  Then the car was put together and painted.
