  2. Howdy neighbor. Ya, you’ll be burning a LOT of midnight oil to drive that puppy to Billet Proof.<O:p</O:p
    Look great though. I just finished a 1950 M1 for my wife. It’s her daily driver till the snow flies again. Check out my online album for pictures.<O:p></O:p>
    Good luck getting that done in time!!!<O:p</O:p

    Wire it, and make sure everything is bolted down and kosher. Probably wont be 100% "done", but im aiming to make it there and back from auburn.

    I just got mine back together from being "off the road" for the winter.

    Finished the Olds dash swap, painted the dash the column and wheels, restored the heater, restored the Lincoln steering wheel, new gas tank, fuel sender, new shocks, new radiator, made a new core support, bumper brackets, new motor mounts and some other little stuff. Unfortunately, the car still LOOKs pretty much the same.

    on the to do list for the next few weeks: p***enger side rocker panel and lower door repair, round the door and trunk lid corners, and finish the install of a new floating grille.

    I LOVE this car. What did you end up deciding as far as paint colors?

    I'm going with 54 Buick- ***an red. The dash is 2-toned, with ***an Red on top, and gold on the bottom.

    And thanks...:)

    My roadster is 99% done, all I gotta do is figure out a way to get it there. It's got the stock A engine in it for now, so I don't plan on driving it 300 miles one way :D I may end up flat towing it with my pickup.
