Crappy camera. I see the date on it is wrong again. I just set it the last time I used it. Maybe I need to use my date adjusting hammer on it! Well, the pix were taken on Sept 20th 2009 some time in the morning.

Almost a car...
...but looks like you could use some seats, huh?? Yea, I know, little picky details......
I tried substitutes like bags of fertilizer and milk crates but they were not too comfy... I hated when too much gas would throw me in to the back and I had to get up and take control again before I hit something.
Looks like solid progress though! Any completion dates set yet?

71 or 72? That a BB 455 I see lurking behind the rad support? That will be one nice car when done. Bugger to keep clean though - the only disadvantage of black.

It's a 72. I bought it in 84. It was a 350 4bbl car now its a edelbrock headed 455 with 470 hp and 540 tq. Muncie is all rebuilt . It was black when I bought it but origionally it was Baroque Gold. Black Buckets with no console. no power steering or brakes. I need to get out there with my buffer. It's more overwhelming to buff it than to do the bodywork. I hate buffing. Ewwww...:-)

Very nice 442 M. Still may have a bit of cooling issue though. Thats just my proffesional opinion you know. You got any pics of what you stated with in the beggining? Your camera is probalby OK, its just that time keeper battery is dead probably. They are not that expensive just PITA to replace. Don't take the hammer to it just yet, the pic quality is decent.

Funny thing about the wheels. A buddy of mine bought a set of them for his 68 V3tte(lol) and 2 weeks after he got the first set, they sent him another set and never charged him for them. lol He gave em to me for painting a hood for him.
