Re: Restomod "good memories"

Unfortunatly my dad's 72 he purchased new was totaled in a rollover that almost ended his life. Otherwise it would still be in the family. Due to his degraded state from emphysema he passed a mere 6 months after the accident. I will be using parts scavenged from the wreckage in my rebuild to remind me of him even though I do not need them. Spent some more time at the body shop yesterday taking off the rest of molding, gutting the interior and removing gas tank. Found a bit more rust repair work needed near right kick panel. Brad (body work, paint) assured me it is no big deal. Have new body mounts arriving next week from Wes at Classic Heartbeat to replace the ones I purchased from LMC. Will get them installed along with the nos core support I purchased 15+ years ago next week. In my haste to get out of the shop I forgot pics. Next time there I will try to remember.
