65 Fairlane pro-touring build

[Vic1947]

Boy was I overoptimistic! Bodywork was nowhere near done when I last posted. Blocking uncovered many areas that needed to be revisited. So, all that's done and for the first time in over two years, the little Fairlane is down on all fours. The guys from Graffiti Alley came by last week and gave it the once over. Pointed out some things I could easily do that would save me some billable hours in their shop. I'm getting very close - but unfortunately, they're covered up with work right now.

I have several things that still need to be done such as modifying the front bumper and installing hood pins, etc. I also need to do some fiberglass repair work under the dash (not my favorite thing). So, it's not like I'm vapor locked. I reckon it's better to be making progress here at home as opposed to the car sitting idle at the paint shop. Justin is a pretty straight shooter, so I'm sure he'll get it done. He only has one full time employee, though, and I'd bet every car owner he's dealing with wants to be at the front of the line. We'll just have to see how it goes.
