Hi, I'm new to the Forum and hoping to find help in putting our 1960 AH 3000 back together. And I do mean back together. My wife of 8 years had the car in her garage since 1964 when her husband to be bought it as a wreck and as he was a body mechanic was going to fix it up for their honeymoon. As most business owners know, their own stuff is the last to get fixed and as a result the car sat in the shop waiting to be fixed and was moved to her home garage when he died in 1992 where it sat till we met and married and decided to get it restored. By the way, I had a 1958 AH 100-6 and did go on my honeymoon in it in 1962. A long story short, the guy who was "fixing" the car tore it apart and then for 6 years had every excuse possible why he didn't get it done. He moved to two different shops along the way and was always saying "I will have it done next month..." When he decided to move again, we told the shop owner, an old acquaintance, the car was not to leave the shop and asked if he would finish the job. When we took stock of what we had to do, we found a few parts were missing, like the engine, hood, wheels and more. We have managed to acquire replacement parts and are putting it back together, but it has been a nightmare figuring out what is missing and what goes where. Hopefully, I can find some answers from all of you.
