The paintjob is terrible, and I hope to have the money to have it professionally repainted sometime next year. Whatever body the rust had was taken care of before I purchased it. There is only some minor work that needs to be done on the rear quarterpanels. I've bought most of the chrome pieces that are missing, and plan to put them on as soon as the weather warms up. Once that's all done, I will start working on the interior. (Pretty good there, except for 2 cuts in the front seats. Headliner needs to be replaced though, and it needs a stereo) Upon driving the car home to NY from PA, I decided for whatever reason to open up the glove compartment.I was shocked to find the original maintenance booklet with the name of the dealership that sold the car in PA, as well as the original owner's name and metal plate with all the car's information on it! Since I've bought it, I've had the tires replaced with a new set of raised white lettering Dunlops, converted it to an electronic ignition, and had the radiator re-cored. I plan to make the car look almost brand new, but I plan to wait a few years before doing a frame-off resto. I just love driving it too much! :)" CLICK->
About a year after sending the above pictures, Paul decided to have a professionally done body-on restoration for his 1966 LeMans. Here's a picture of the rear lower-left quarter panel cut away. This is a frequent location of rust and years of body filler.CLICK->
Here we are fitting up a new lower rear quarter panel. Looks like a good fit. Let's weld it on!PICTURE SET CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE ... |
