I'm also looking forward to following this restoration with great anticipation.
I'm wondering if Alan plans on cleaning up the St. Thomas Chrysler emblem on the rear panel and re-attaching it?
It would be a great discussion piece.

It's made of plastic, and held in place with two-way tape. I need to find a place that can re-chrome plastic and then I'll restore it, but this time use magnetic strip to hold it on whenever you feel you want it on there.

Black over spray in the engine compartment as well in the trunk, pretty odd.

Wow battery tray and inner fender underneath are not even rotted out!  :bradsthumb:
Cool car!  I'm guessing the black in the trunk was a spray bomb attempt at stopping some rust?

Way to hang on to your AAR and way to be brave enough to have it redone.  I totally get the itch to bring it back to its original glory and  :fingerscrossed: that it will return to you better than you found it 48 years ago.   :bradsthumb:

neat car! following this one close. you dont see many like this anymore. I'm guessing this one will show everyone some cool factory secrets

Awsome to see these survivors.
Especially ones that were built to be hammered on.
Looking forward to following this and then the follow up black stripe video. Lol

 :wrenching: Cool to see these survivor cars coming out of the woodwork; cool restoration project. My favorite restoration from Alan was Barrelcuda that car was brought back from the dead a lot of metal work done on that one. :twothumbsup:

Nice looking AAR!

I'm currently restoring a T/A in the same color FF4. I'm looking at paint and wondering what you would be using ? A friend of mine is painting the car and he is very practiced at it and we are looking at colors the few samples we have gotten for FF4 seem just a bit darker than what was on my car.

Thanks
Brian.

We have to use a water based paint up here ibn Canada due to regulations so it's a totally different ball game.

There was another member here who had a beautiful representation of the FF4 colour on his freshly restored car and I had him share his mix code, here it is...
