    This is what it will look like when it has been completed, matching engine and trans with 56,000 miles on it.

    It's not done yet, but I can, is there a way to do it from a mobile device? It won't access my photos to upload them.

    I threw in a few pictures of how it looked when I first got it and some current pictures ( 2 weeks old). I haven't checked it out since then because I have been busy.

    Thank you. I was told by 4 shops that I brought it to that it belongs in a scrap yard. It was frustrating. It needed at minimum, breaks, break lines, full exhaust, floors, trunk quarters roof and holes fixed. Getting the vehicle on a trailer without breaks was as much fun as you can imagine. This weekend I will check on it and I will post new updated pictures.

    I have a 2 dr Comet door panel that I can sell. I will have to check at my storage yard tomorrow to see the color. I will take a pic and send it to you tomorrow.

    Kudos to y0u Dalton:
    I've seen some intense repairs but I have to say .. you have come a long way from where it was .. congratulations on you repairs .. A lot of folks would not have attempted such an endeavor .
    Like the Color ..

    Thank you very much it's been about 8 months of work and the interior still needs all the fabric and furniture put back in it.

    I found a cover on eBay for mine. Made from fine carpet so it's not reflective from using Armor All
