    . . . I have the time and ability to make it as good as new so that is the route planned. So a much longer time frame for gratification but a much higher level of gratification when done     . . .

    Sorry, nothing interesting to report yet. Collected most of the hard parts needed to restore it. Machine work done, had to track down 1st oversized case bearings for a std crank - that was a pain and expensive. Good news is 100% matching numbers and all the right early SWB engine parts are present.

    Going to replace the driver rear quarter panel soon and complete metalwork. Then send it off to paint. Still a couple years away from total completion.

    I have a bunch of other cars coming up before this one, next spring should be interesting
