1973 Hurst/Olds Resto....

3 years into Rusty's restoration. Thought I would share. Far from done, a hell of a lot of work for someone who has very little knowledge of cars.. "Me"
This is what I started with.

Looking good. There are not a lot of these cars left do to the severe rusting of the bodys. My 73 442 was still pretty solid when I got it.

Looking great! As Steve says, I don't think there are a lot of the '73-'77 vintages left!

Actually next to a barn a 1/2 mile from the Delaware River! Its not that bad of a car, it looks worse then it was.
Thanks for all the encouraging words guys! I have been a little stuck lately trying to get the frame back under the car.....Over whelmed!
Steve , I have been a big fan of your work on your 73 car for a long time.
Some great people on this site!
