    Need any help I could get in restoring this wonderful auto. It is being upholstered at this time. I had it in a resto shop but had to remove it as they would not finish it. Need help in determining where some parts go. Thanks!

    I owed this car about 1975-1977. Did a re-ring & clutch job on it. Traded it off. It went through a couple of owners in a couple of years. It last time I knew of it, it was on a repo lot with a blown engine. Seems the last owner got high on speed one night and held it down till he broke the timing chain.
    Hope you've finished the resto by now. Would love to see some current pictures.
    Good Luck

    Spam prevention question (must be answered):
    The father of jokes about warm beer and smoke escaping from wires is Joseph Lucas. Lucas died of typhoid after drinking infected water in Naples in 1902.

    What disease did Lucas succumb to?
