Plus he said it is wet sanding like a dream. It will have 5-6 layers of clear on it when he is done.

It should be all buffed out today or tomorrow and we will be installing trim, parts, and the drivetrain :slight_smile:

Think it’ll make an appearance this year?

All depends on the weather in the next month. If not, it will be in the World of Wheels in the Buffalo Convention Center in March.

I want to drive it!

:tup:

Joe, if you’re out, let me know.

TB, PM me if you want to meet up at the shop and check it out.

Added some more pics. Had it’s first buff today. Shiny

Headliner goes in Friday. Drivetrain, crossing fingers for this weekend.

I wanted the car to have smoother lines. So on the rear tailpanel, we smoothed the lines out. Also where the rocker panels meet the rear quarters and above the trunk lid. Looks a lot cleaner

And the taillight is missing because the one they sent to me wasn’t that great for a new part. New one is on the way.

And a quick pic of the headliner. Almost finished. The sail panels go in tomorrow.

you’ll have to wait and see. :slight_smile:

^^^ lol…302…lol

snky snky :slight_smile:
I figured some people would enjoy that.
I think once my car is more known about whats in it, I’ll have a custom emblem with the real cubic inch. Or I’ll leave it to screw with people.

No 302? :frowning: My uncle is doing a very similar resto on a '69 Z/28 (has been for years actually) and went with a 383 McQuillen build. I guess the 302 is just too much of a hassle for a car to just jump in and drive.
