    Its got an ok newer paint job, but other than that I found no patches and very little rust other than surface rust, even on top of the headlights!

    Today it got a good cleaning underneath and some paint and undercoating in the spots that like to disappear.

    That Lark is a very desirable body style these days, being a 2-door post. Maybe the drive train from the Cruiser can go into the Lark. That would make quite a little sleeper (The Cruiser is a V8, correct?). What ****** is in the Cruiser? There are lots of possibilities in that plain little Lark.

    I am certainly glad that Pops is okay and that this new adventure with the Lark is in you guys' future.

    WOOOHOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Thanks to a donation from another chicago area Stude guy, Ed Goerge, we got a pile of parts to get it back on the road!

    I'll have to build a radiator for it and find a couple bumper brackets.

    Couple patches and some spray paint (for now) and it'll be cruisin again by end of summer!
