    Hi guys,
     The picture at top is when we started then as we went along, The pictures are numbered by the day. AS you can see we have been working on it for 5 days now. It is going to be painted plumb crazy again, not the yellow. The convertible in the back ground might be painted the yellow not sure yet, maybe black with flat black r/t stripe and the flat black hood. Not sure yet, so many colors!

    .... I don't know, it looked pretty good to begin with. I guess there were flaws the first picture didn't show???

    Wow, she looked pretty good going into the resto!  Great job tearing her apart...that's always the fun/easy part.  Keep us posted with new pics as you get them.  I love to watch the progress.

    looks good.

    It would be worth much more the factory color, but it is your car.

    Nice looker! I couldn't help but see the Shelby in the background.... :)

    The car is originally a Banana Yellow one, correct? I saw one with a light brown interior, and it actually looked decent.

    What's the specs on your car, is this a V-code with any interesting options? Funny thing is...you have the same exact Sun tach that I had on mine before I yanked it.

    That will be a great car!  Keep the pics coming.  Are you going to put the Keystones back on it?

    With that being a V code car I think your making a mistake, money wise, by changing the color. Great find though. I've been helping a good friend restore a Orange V code 70 Challenger. His car had enough rust for 3 cars. We spent the last two winters cutting and welding. There is no rust anymore. They are awsome cars for sure!!
