My 67 Formula S Resto. thread

Sounds like yer in the same boat as me Jim, I just turned 45, had my project for 20 years and still nowhere near being done. Like Mop said, lotsa small stuff to do, well with mine anyway...still seems to cost me $$ though...LOL Good luck!
 
Real solid base that needs some parts and TLC. I have a 68 and love these models. Mine has a ways to go too. Brought it with me from California but eventually going to be a slant six to 360 swap.
 
You have done some great work on your car. That work take some skills! Is your Road runner for sale? That is a super nice car you have there.
 
I got the passenger quarter off.The rocker is perfect and outer wheel tub is near perfect.I will have one little spot to weld on the outer wheel tub.I mini tubbed the drivers side months ago now I can do the passenger side.

Almost ready to weld in the tub in.I never want to do another mini tub again.It is alot of work to do it right and make it look factory.

I,ve been following along with your build Jim since the start.Keep up the good work you,ve been doing.When discouraged about funds,try to keep moving forward with the body and other small things.You,ll get there sooner than later.:cheers:

Yes it was easier.Once I get these tubs done it will go alot quicker for a while,I have alot of time in these well tubs.I still have to finish figuring out the rear seat.Also now that the tubs are wider the metal interior panel that covers them up will not longer fit.So I will have to figure something out on that,any ideas?

Jim
 
Sorry no updates other than I am out of money.I have been laid off off and on all year.Was laid off for 2 weeks went back to work for 1 week and got laid off again due to flooding.If I sell my Road Runner I will have the cash to get back on this project.
