    Hi all!
    I just picked up a 1954 Customline Club Coupe
    It’s got the original 239 Yblock and has been sitting since 2007.

    The PO air bagged the car all around and converted the front brakes to Disc.
    He moved out of state and it sat at his parents house since (this is where I come in).

    I have already done quite a bit to it:
    Door poppers w/solenoids
    Shaved trunk lock and installed hidden pull lever
    Welded seat frame that was broken
    Installed relays to bag switches in order to operate bags via remote
    New front wing window
    New p***. front gl***
    Mechanical related (rebuilt carb, dropped oil pan/trans pan to clean out, plugs, wires, radiator core cleaned out, alignment)
    New horn ring
    Greased all fittings
    Acquired grille parts and installed

    The list goes on and on. :)

    A pic before I got her (still in PO driveway)

    And a pic after some work and a nice So. Ca rain :D
