Turning a 74 into a 72
Haven't gotten a lot done on the dart, my Dad blew his back out and is being told he may be wheel chair bound. Spent the last couple of days taking him to the doctor two cat scans and one MRI they injected dye into his spine to see the damage. His nerves running down his spine are pinched real bad at L 4&5 and there is damage at L 2&3 also. He gets Cortisone shots in three places three time in the next few weeks. If that doesn't work it's surgery or a walker and a wheel chair for the rest of his life. He's 81, the doctor put a scare in him about his age and the possibility of not surviving the surgery. So we are all hoping and praying that the shots give him enough relief to be able to get around good.
I have did a few thing, put the heater in, put on the chrome drip rails, installed the rear windows, and got the doors in color. I didn't have enough to do the hood so I just ordered more paint. Almost thought about doing the hood in satin black, but think I'll stick with blue.
Here's a few pictures of my grand accomplishments!
Painted the dash couldn't resist setting it in place for a look see, I'll be painting the top of it satin black with a black pad on it.
Hope to get more done this week end, it will probably be a whole week end of wet sanding.
