1966 442 Project Phase 1

Hi Again,

Here are some additional pictures of our 442 project. Phase one as we call it was getting the body off the frame which happened in June of 09. After the "lift off" pictures were taken, the body was mounted on a home made wood cart and stored for 6 more months when it was trailered to a friends shop in Brookings Oregon where it is undergoing body and paint work. Hope to have it back by the end of this month.
I have also included pictures of the frame which I cleaned up (sand blasted) and painted (rear axle and frame) or had powder coated (suspension parts), installed new springs and bushings, rebuilt steering box with a bit quicker ratio and so on and so on. We will trailer the rolling chassis to Brookings when it is done and mount the body to the frame and bring it home.
We have also had the seats and rear side panels redone in the original blue. I have included a picture of a seat.

More later as time allows. Thanks.

Been following 66 builds a lot lately. Mine will be coming apart soon. Looks good so far. Show us some pics of that wooden cart.
