I'm never going to see Rubber Bumpers the same now that you pointed out the 70 / 71 different.  :)

Looking great.  :drinkingbud:  Do you have a target completion date?  Where does the owner live?  I bet their excited to see it.

The car has to return to New York by the first week in May. There is a bond on it that expires after 12 months.

Car will be done next week, but will probably wait a bit before taking it to my mechanic for the alignment etc...

The owner actually bought it last year and had it shipped directly to me, so I'm guessing he's really looking forward to enjoying it for the first time.

Alan,
As usual another great job, I assume the SPD on the car is after March 5,1971 due to the wheels being painted Black instead of body color or did the customer request Black. My SPD is 430 and is coded for the 2944450 wheels painted TX9 but I think I will paint them body color (EV2).

What product do u spray in there

I have used Roger Gibson's as well as Resto Rick's undercoating and they are both excellent products that look factory original.

As long as you're all set for Carlisle.....It's all about setting goals that you can achieve that brings you the most joy....

The only reason I need to get this done in two weeks is so I can get back on the other four cars I'm restoring :tired:

Not sure if my work would live up to your standards, :brainiac:  but sometimes it's better to be looking at a finished project then a rusty bucket of bolts......

I have a lot of interest from my American friends because they get a 30%-35% discount right off the top due to our lousy CDN dollar...An $80K CDN resto only cost $60K USD... :'(
