72 Cutlass Project

Hello all, I bought this car in May of 2009. It was a project to get me out from behind this computer. A lot of the work I've done my self, and is very satisfying. I am able to remove and replace parts that are bolted on, and leave the rest to the professionals. I am not building a show car, but a weekend driver. Since joining CO I have learned a lot by reading as much as I can on the site. You guys are very knowledgeable.

My car has been in the body shop since December 2, 2009, I told them I was in no hurry because I was unable to work on it in the wintertime. I am expecting to get it back in the next couple weeks. I go by the body shop every two or three days and check the progress. Some days not very much, and other days a big change. I know how you like pictures so I will add a few.

Mike
