The parts car

OK now I own a Grand Three. Grand Prixs, that is!

Bought that 72 GP cheap and dragged it out of the ditch. I'll get it home this weekend and after that, I'll attempt to get it running. Then I will probably take out what I want and scrap the rest. As you can see, it was too close to a fire at some point, on the rearend. Notice the blistered paint and melted reflectors!

 Heres the gauge cluster. Cool, maybe I can use that. Mine has no gauges and I have added a tach where this clock is.

Wake up and drive

This is what I see in my last moments of foggy peace daily, before I enter the rat race. Time to lower the sunvisor!

More junk?

Might have found me a cheap parts car with tilt wheel, bucket seats, and a console for my old Grand Prix. Its a '69, this is a '72. Most stuff swaps, some doesn't. It has no title but does have the engine and trans. Hope I can get it! That would motivate me to take my purple car to the next level. I have been driving it since the turn of the century and it could use an update in technology and appearance, to lessen the ho-hum factor. We'll see.

More F-100 pics coming soon!

Been awhile since I posted updates on the '62 Ford. Lots of fancy metal work was involved in getting the body patched up. Last Friday I appled the first primer coats, but only on exterior panels from the cowl back. So it is still very much a work in progress and as time permits, I will post some pics showing the work being done. Until then, "check back periodically".  Thanks for passing through, heres a teaser.
