So I'll be working on this next week and Memorial day weekend.

I'll be having a little get together on the 27th for anyone who wants to come. PM for the addy and phone number. If you have parts that might go in my rusty spots I'll buy em.

So come and , (IMG:style_emoticons/default/jsharp.gif) , (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) , and we can get to know each other and do a bit of (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sawzall-smiley.gif) , (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif) , and (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif) .

And bring your cars too as the only one I have ever seen running was at Hershey and it was to wet to really get a good look.

Sounds good! We are heading to Newburgh. My wifes family has a house on the Lake. Its a Memorial Day tradition to spend the week there and just do absolutely nothing but eat, drink, sleep and occasionally hop on the boat.

I won't be able to make the 27th but have a cold one for me. I'll be in the 'burgh 2 weekends later for a June 10 graduation party.

Damn your making fast progress. Please tell me that you got that car a year ago and have been working on it since and just got a chance to upload the pics lately.

Like the old-timers used to say in the steel mill, "Slow down there young buck, you're making the rest of us look bad". Just kidding, keep up the good work and keep the pics coming.

I followed me home March 5th this year so that is 75 days in my posession. Still have to do the title transfere. I sat for 10 years with no official owner so I don't think a little more will hurt. It has only been in it's native environment (jack stands) for 5 days while the motor came out, and then went back up on Sunday, so that is 10 days so far. But it will have to stay up on them till the hh rust is fixed as I removed the rear trailing arm.

Spoke - The goal is to drive to Maine end of July. At this point I probably willn't make it but it is the goal.

So let me know if anyone can help.

And thanks for everything you guys have done so far.

You should post a seperate thread on the get together on the 27th.

Also just because I am a pessamist, I woudl title it before I finish it as you never know if someone will change their mind once they see that you actually are fixing it.

Dr E - I have the bill of sale to my wifes uncle. His wife gave me the car after he passed away. Willn't be a problem to title it. I did make another post about a BBQ on the 27th but I failed to put a location inthe title so it has already fallen off the front page for lack of intrest so I'll make a new one that actually tells where and when.

drewvw - I'm in Pittsburgh PA but I went to school at RIT and I'm headed there after the get together at my place for work. A customer up there needs help. I get to go and get his CNC machine up and running.

More ugly and the obligatory jack stand shot.

It is of course sitting on a ramp as it wasn't nearly tall enough.
