I've never done a new topic but here goes..

I haven't built in 18 years and had a friend(Wally Breer) graft a 2 dr sedan roof on a 64 Lindberg Plymouth..Finally after a year and half I finished it..Not perfect but I'am happy..No wiring/plumbing etc (dexterity and patience) have lots to do with that..Basically done box stock..Has flaws,,critics? go ahead..The grill since the pictures has been chromed on top with the Molotow pen..Hope the pictures turn out so you can see..This car fought me all the way, but I guess not building in almost 2 decades that will happen...Thanks...

Nice come-back, Wayne. It looks really good. I wouldn't say that the car fought you because of your "rusty" skills. I would say the car fought you because the box said "Lindberg" on it!:blink:

It started out with the primer..I primed in black thinking it would make the color coats a touch darker..Wrong..Next was the color..I hate anything Toyota and Yota was getting even with me,,didn't cover well,showed marks etc..Never should have used Toyota color...LOL

Very nice Wayne!

I hope this finished project lights a renewed fire under you & gets you back to a more regular building schedule! :)

Now I just need to rekindle my fire, get my shop up to speed & get back to it.

I can hardly wait to get back to the bench!

Nice work!
