Hey all... Hazen here.
Some of you know me from other forums-may as well keep my handle the same.

I've got a 67 Mk1 GT6 I've been working on for 2 decades now. Spent the first 2 years driving it and realizing it needed a full resto, parked it and decided in 2009 it would never fix itself so I learned all the skills to replace the many rusty panels (read 90% of the tub and 100% of the bonnet).
Much of my restoration I've documented elsewhere, here are a few teaser pics.

the before:

tub on rotisserie (I built it to roll and store over the rolling chassis)

and just a few weeks ago. I'm a little further along than this now

I've been to (through?) Jerome many times.

yup...this project has kept me going for many years. My son at the wheel there wasn't even born when I bought the car.

Found a shot of me driving it. This was back in 95 not long after I purchased it.
