67 restoration part 5

  • Just a quick update on the 67 project....the car is now ready for final body work and paint. The fellow who will be doing the painting will allow me to help and we should get started in December. Maybe I'll be able to learn something.


    I had an email from the orginal owner of the car and learned some things. This man has become a real help in restoring the car and just fun to talk to. He said all he wants is to drive the car one more time...I told him he'll be the second person to drive it when it gets done.


    The first misconception he cleared up had to do with the paxton. I thought the paxton was purchased from the dealer and may even had been installed by the dealer. Not so, I've added information on where the orginal owner bought the paxton and the directions for installation...not what I expected. This leads me to a question. Could a customer actually order a paxton through a local Ford dealer? For some reason I thought you could order them from the dealer.


    I also asked the orginal owner if he or the factory rolled the front wheel moldings and he said he had done this to get fatter tires on the car.


    Below are some links to the photos. If they are not hot linked please copy and paste the link into your browser window. Sorry if they don't work this way, I will try to get you different files when I can.
