A surprise development on the history of my car surfaced on FB Friday. The attached photo was posted by a fellow in Alberta of a 442 he owned in the late 70’s. After a few messages We were able to determine that this is the car I am restoring.
His info stated he bought the car through an Auto Trader style ad in 1977 and the car had come from Halifax. He kept the car for a few years and sold it in 1980. He stated the car “ had returned to the earth in a wrecking yard in Blackie,Alberta”
Well it didn’t return to the earth as it was purchased from that wrecking yard in the early 80’s. The car had a hard life as it had a front end hit as well as a motor change before I bought it.
Insurance card from 1979.

Work on the body progressed through August with final assembly of body panels , ensuring all gaps were perfect. Pre painting of jams and overspray on underbody were performed before body drop.
Body back on the frame for the final time.
Gaps are critical and Mark ensured everyone was perfect.
