RESTORATION (Page 5) |

Sunday March 5th, 2006
I've been a little remiss at updating here. It's not because nothing is getting done, (Sound familiar?) I took another car into the shop for a local restoration shop. It's a 63 Sport Roadster and they want me to assemble the top, get the system working properly and install a new rag on it. The car sat outside for quite a while and the relays and limit switches are in bad shape. I replaced 6 of the 8 relays and am in the process of taking the limit switches apart and cleaning or replacing them. I believe the wire harness is shot too and I will replace that too. I have one from a parts car I saved. As you can see in the pictures below, I got all the suspension and "underneath" parts all primed and painted black. I also have the new seam sealer applied to the body shell. I'm in the process now of making all the body parts nice and straight. I should be ready to prime in about 2-3 more weeks if things go smoothly. I received all my parts from Nicks Tbirds and everything looks real nice. The new red Leather seat covers are beautiful. I can't wait to get to the point of putting the interior in. |
