    This is a great Epic Car Build, Dan! I really enjoy watching your progress. I'm able to live "vicariously" through you, as I live in an apartment with no garage to work in, and landlady (ugh! don't get me started on HER!) who lives next door and doesn't allow any working on cars on the property.
    Anyway, it's great to see your project coming together.
    BTW: you ARE going to hit all the "low areas" (bottoms of fenders, cowl, trunk floor and window channels) with POR-15--right? That stuff is amazing, and I personally think it should be a mandatory addition to a proper restoration job--especially in a snow/salted roads environment.-- Just my 2 cents.
    Thanks again for sharing.

    Cheers!

    Chris,

    Thanks for the kind words...I remember when I too lived in an apartment and could not work on my car. Hang in there, you too will have a garage one day...and when that day comes, if your anything like me? It will be like awaking a sleeping giant, you will go nuts! What fun :TU:

    Thanks Todd,

    How is my former 350 Buick engine going? Any progress? You should start a thread on your build :TU:
