Hi folks thanks for having me. I have been building a 1972 Cutlass Convertible for many years now. My original plan to just clean it up and drive it turned into a complete frame off restoration. It's coming together nice, but slow... I am looking forward to learning, sharing and just talk'n shop. Thanks again.

Smitty,
Welcome to our site. Taking it all the way down like that ensures you don't miss any corrosion, that's for sure. What condition is the car presently in?
