Obviously not restored, it still needs lots of work, but it sure has come a long way from when I got it.

Ok everyone. Be advised that i got alot of pics...ill just throw up some though of my current restoration on my baby. Still got a ways to go though...but shes coming right along. Hopefully i will be all done for the car shows at the end of may. Exterior restoration is all complete, the interior is coming right along. Only thing that isnt new is the dash insert and the rear plastic peices. Everything is is new condition and has been replaced.

I only got the after as the before was too hideous to even take pictures of. But this may be a before again as I am getting qoutes and preparing to do a showroom paint job with ghost flames and complete chrome of the engine and painting of the engine bay. This cars daily driver days are coming to a rapid conclusion. Probably the last summer of extensive driving and she will never see another winter.
