Love the car, looks amazing, can you come finish mine now LOL!!!

 

The trick to a project like this is to pick at it every day
Wether 5 minutes or 5 hours the idea is to move forward
Alain Red W-31

 

^Amen, you pick a lot faster than I do Ive been picking for about 4 years now and not close to finished granted I’m doing absolutely everything myself with the help of my brother but to watch you start this project and finish is both admirable and heartbreaking haha I will get there eventually, loved following your build, love the w-31’s so this was especially fun to watch you bring back to life, amazing work, amazing car hope mine turns out half as nice I’ll be happy! 1972 cutlass convertible Viking blue white interior is my project

 

Absolutely stunning... thanks for the thread. beautiful attention to detail!

Saying goodbye to the W-31 soon
P/S only for the season of winter

That's an amazing restoration job. Well done sir. A column shift and bench seat adds to the sleeper factor (for those who have no idea what "W31" stands for).

 

The stripes and the hood kinda give away a little

Just the idle of the engine will tell all it's a real Rocket!

 

yes idling could be a giveaway
Was told this morning at coffee car sounds a bit angry

Will be working out the details on the W-31 over the winter
Will make it as nice as it can be

Beautiful car. Great job. I love it. Cool deal on the license plate too.

 

The second plate is on its way.
Will try to do something with these.
