    Thanks a lot, man. Hope to get it running soon. Right now, I still have the front cap off, but I'm slowly stripping and painting all the underhood pieces. Then after I hang all the sheetmetal, I can get to things like wiring.

    And, no, to answer your question: I took the back seat you sold me out and actually installed in the car--it's the only thing in the interior right now except the dash and the steering wheel. But I haven't gotten it reupholstered. I'm gonna leave it as is for what will probably be a very long time. Interior is a long way down the road.

  7. This thread is the ultimate inspiration. Just bought a shoe box, I only have the pics from the ad, waiting for the wife to snap some good ones and send them too me. It is rough but a place to start.

    Here's a few pics of my buddy's car. He had J-Bird go crazy with scallops during the early spring of 2009. Then drove it the rest of 09 til the snow fell.
