I could just cry

Found this one in the north west of the province, Florenceville to be exact , 34k miles,I think it's more like 134k but the body is not bad . Young kid bought it from out west and started restoring it and ran out of money and courage.Was on kijiji since last spring and never sold so I made an offer and he accepted it's got it's issues but all in all not a bad little car.At least i'm back in the game!!

 

Congrats on your new purchase, looks like Apollo V.2's gonna get ya back cruising the streets in style once again!

 

Nice car! How is the black one doing? Have you had the paint stripped and primed yet? How is the body?

Oh man, I can imagine what you feel right now, I also own an Apollo that my dad gave me so sad, if I were you i would fix this car till my last breath.

 

Then you gotta fix it, that's the bottom line, you owe it to yourself, your Dad and the car!

 

Hi , just thought i'd let you all know that I haven't given up on this thing yet.Going right donw to bare matal and starting from scratch .Slowly getting parts together to try and put things back together .Wife had to kick my but a few times to get me going again , thanks dear! But i think I'm back on track

Good deal, glad to see it underway...again. You'll be glad that you decided to go forth.

 

Hey Mike, that's great man. Please keep us posted with progress and pictures! :beers2:

 

Good to hear you're not giving up. Do keep us posted, round 1 was beautiful...can't wait to see how round 2 turns out.:TU:

 

Good to see you working one it. It's got to be hard getting started. You'll be glad you did.

 

Sorry for your loss but you'll get thru it. I lost a 69 GTO 400 4 spd to fire. At least you were able to salvage it. All I had was the drive train. I still get sick when I look at those pics and that was 30 years ago.

 

Yeah i still get that sick feeling too everytime i look at the pics. But i'm gonna try it one more time .Had a call this week from someone local that i don't even know and have never met who wants to donate a trunk .Heard of our bad luck thru someone who heard thru someone and so on and so on . This guy is restoring a 74 nova and had a good trunk lid . Heard that mine is damaged beyond repair and wants to donate I offered to buy but he won't hear of it .Still a heck of alot of good car people around .I'm going to meet him in the morning and take a look at it. Mike

 

It's really cool you are going through with it good luck and keep the pic's coming as you go .
