I have a guy who is cutting out the rockers and weld in a new one, a guy who is doing the electrical, a paint shop).

I'm 10 months post purchase and about 6 months into the restoration. I expect it to be done by mid October.
Thanks for checking it out. I'm sure mine will go frame off before it's over with. The more I dig, the more I see things I would like to do before I paint it. But it is definitely fun to tinker on. I just want to get it driveable to enjoy it a little before it gets cold!
