Pics from my project during the years
« on: April 13, 2005 - 12:57:53 PM »
Since I`ve been a member for some weeks now,I thought it`s about time to show you some pics of the resto.The first pics are my first A-body Cuda wich was my first car after I got driver license 8).And then some pics from the welding,there wasn`t that much rust on it, some in the floors and quarters.The boys in the background of the garage are my two sons,they are now 21 and 24 years,so time goes by but nothing`s happening in the shop :dontknow:,until the last two years :beer:.The pics have been scanned to the computer,so the quality isn`t first class.I`ll post moore pics later,from the last two years.

Congratulations on the new grandbaby Swedefish!!  Is she your first? 

Thanks for the pics.  I love to see pics that show the progression of the resto.  Really shows how far you've come.  She looks beautiful!

Great pics!! - serious respect for the guy who does as much work as he can on his own car - I'd kill to be able to paint even half decent.

Congrats on the car and the grandchildren!  :thumbs:
