HALLALUJIAH!!! FINALLY....

But, here's some of what's waiting for it in the GarageMahal (all new, rebuilt or refurbished)....& there's lots more:

Drool - For the life of me I can't figure out whether I want to invite myself over to play or whether I need to be figuring out how to marry Mrs Autoist when you kick the bucket - both for the inheritance and the permission :jester:

maybe both :devilgrin:
 
Very nice, Tony, Very nice. I believe your Midget will qualify as "much better than it left the factory" now. :smile:
 
That all looks like really good "rainy day" stuff to put on the car while it is pouring outside!!! :wink:
 
I think you should bubble wrap the whole car once you you get it all done.

They say that you should put a scratch somewhere that no one can see to protect it from dings on the outside.
(Who ever they are)

When I get mine ready can I bring it up there and have the same paint job? It sould be the benchmark for all restorations.

That's what Jack did with Miss Agatha - he brought her up here & left her for Ricky to work his magic!
 
...IT's HOME!!!

& the work can begin....at the body shop, on the trailer, in my drive, in the garage & under its cover until I start reassembly this afternoon!! WOO HOO!!

Re: ...IT's HOME!!!

You're going to be a busy man, Tony. Should be fun, though. No greasy bits, just nice clean painted metal.

What me, jealous?

Re: ...IT's HOME!!!

Ok lets get some wheels on it so we have a roller. Man do I expect to see great things on a daily basis.
 
Re: ...IT's HOME!!!

Working on wiring harness right now & finding many things that just won't work...i.e., the flasher in the old harness was spade connectors - the new flasher needs screw type connectors...& there's no 'headlamp-to-headlamp' harness included in the new one so I have to clean up & reuse the old one.

Among other things!
 
Re: ...IT's HOME!!!

Actually, Tony, I think you should stay off the BCF for a week, and devote that time to reassembly and documentation. Then you can post up the pictures for us to admire. See ya in a week?
 
Re: ...IT's HOME!!!

hehehehe...just when I get going good, UPS shows up with parts for you guys...should I put them off also?

Tony, you are a funny funny guy!!
Next thing we know you'll be on Letterman doing a standup routine!

:wink:
 
Re: ...IT's HOME!!!

I know, I got an idea. What Tony needs is a web cam so we can see what is going on.
 
Re: ...IT's HOME!!!

Tony,
Have a blast just put the 65 on jack stands tonight. getting ready to hang suspension should be fun.

Re: ...IT's HOME!!!

Jack needs to go camp out in Tony's garage and give us a "play by play", like a golf commentator.
 
Re: ...IT's HOME!!!

I offered to go help but Tony said he wanted to do it himself. Shucks we could have it running by now. :smile:
 
Re: ...IT's HOME!!!

give him a few weeks jack
and he'll be beggin for helpers!
we should call tony "the bandit",
hes got a long way to go, and a short
time to get there! :wink: ....z
