Looks tight Joe, and I agree - the '69 tail lights are much better looking…

Thanks,
I just noticed you're from Canada. I hope all is well, that fire at Fort McMurray is a horrible thing.

Joe

Yes Joe. What's happening there is common unfortunately. Country is rallying around relief efforts. Thanks for your thoughts brother...

I finally got around to pulling the 427 Dart out of hibernation just to see what it looked like. I then put some gaskets and valve covers back on it and put it on an engine stand, and wrapped it back up.

I have cut the last of the rust out of the Torino and am ready to start welding in patches.

The lights look great. I'm glad to see you carrying the Torino torch while I've been out.

Progress has been slow as hell. Been having some health issues ...

My wife has been seeing me struggle and asked what I needed to help with the car since Kasey is off to College. I told her I could use a rotisserie and possibly a bead roller a few months ago. That came a week ago so I took 3 days off and to took me all three days at my pace to get it put together and make unibody mounts. I did cut a little more floor out and brace the door jambs.

I will use the bead roller to do the firewall and some other stuff so it is a little different. I also have Kasey's 63 to do.
