All very cool! Keep us posted on progress with the '53, that'll be really nice when done I'm sure!

Restored the old cracked steering wheel...

Bought a parts car for the front bumper and some small parts... car is almost complete for the first time in years....

Merry Christmas everyone... Hope a good driving video coming soon before then...

Brings back memories. The general contractor I used to work for bought a '57 210 sedan for his dad and had me work on it on the side. Just the basics- Carb'ed gen1 350, 700R4, disc brakes, all new updated wiring, retrofit gauges with tach, etc. Then I happened across a wrecked '08 Grand Prix with a mint interior at the salvage yard. So the 210 got black leather power seats and a sweet center console. The shifter worked perfectly with the trans with very minor tweaking. The rear seat just needed minor narrowing and everything else fit and worked like it belonged there.

I'd rather have your '53!

Sadly, I don't. That was in my brick phone days and about the only time I ever had a camera with me was at a car show. There's a LOT I wish I had pics of!
