Very impressive progress. Looks real good. 👍

Did you get the hood latch figured out?

Yes I found another wagon that I bought some glass and other parts from.  It doesn't have the slot either.  I have no idea why both my wagon and parts cars have been sliced.  Will weld it up.

Looking really sharpe Mike! Really starting to take shape.

This is the stage where you see real progress and it's getting close to the end.

The headliner is in.  Took about 10 hours messing around with it to get it to look decent.

That’s the way to do it, one thing at a time,

Those seats will look killer in the car casper50. I'll bet you are getting real anxious now that you are seeing substantial progress.

The best part of redoing a vehicle is the coming together stage.

I built the GTO with an automatic ect for the Wife to drive.  It's too hot, doesn't have air.  You can smell exhaust.......ready for this?    NO CUP HOLDERS!

Love it Mike! Looks to all be coming together! Like Frosty said, you got to be getting excited to put it on the road! Can’t wait!

My first running car was a 67 GTO bought in 74.  Loved that car.  My last was a 64 vert. sold in 86.  Regret that.

Just ordered $3000 worth of parts.  Half was in Coker WWW tire. lol.

I have a line on a '64 Lemans convertible with a 326 2-bbl, factory console 4-speed stick. Red with black top and interior. Looks to be in decent shape. I just got the photos from my buddy. He's a car appraiser.
