    Have several projects in the works. One is a 61 Biscayne basket that came from the Dakotas. Body was rust free except for a few holes in floor pans that have been replaced. About %80 done with details left to finish. So far I have done the entire chassis-added Ford 9", disc brakes all aound, all steel lines, new Chevy crate zz motor and turbo 350 trans, empire two piece shaft. Car drives well. Installed a Dakota digital dash and Ciadella interior-all nice quality stuff. Also have the car on air bags front and rear-sort of like-sort of dont.
    Original wiring had to be replaced in spots so threw the whole lot out and replaced with a new harness.
    To finish, I am looking for a set of 15" steel wheels, side glass rails and guides, front and rear valances, and a rear seat! After that, it will be off to a pro painter (learned I am not a very capable painter) for a coat of period white.
