Ready for launch!!

The body is now on the shop rotisserie, I also lowered the body so I can block it up on the truck. I get nervous transporting the car in pieces.

I removed the cowl seal, screen, wipers and arms, and the lower trim off the windshield. The metal under the trim is spectacular, I was concerned that would be a MAW, but A-OK.

The shop has a booth at Motorama car show in Toronto so they are away for the weekend. Al Corporon got to meet them :-) I needed to get prepared.

I have been trading E-Mails with Lynn Stager to arrange a visit, most likely next week. She has searched and found the Ayr County Garage Shop Foreman that helped Al Stager order and maintain the car from new. I hope he is chatty!!! I also hope he can steer me towards some more dealer memorabilia. I want a dealer tag so bad.

I have made a weird purchase, Dan tells me daily I am crazy:-) so be it!! I have a rear half of a 1969 Black rubber floor mat and a front and rear 1967 tan rubber mat bought.... yes my car came with carpet.... is this correct nope.... is it my car..... yup.... to appease the paint daubers I bought a half used half new black carpet. This is all to allow me to put the car together with a very Stock vibe and then upgrade it with my various shifters.... original Hurst, Competion Plus, Street Super, and RamRod :-)

Whew... thumbs are sore :-)

I had a small Oldsmobile army helping me get the wipers off:-) I had lots of PPE on as I was using an air gun just before my hunny snapped some pictures.

Please tell me you did not scratch that frame....why no front wheels?

Where are your frame engine pads?

What is that white stuff all over the ground

Progress indeed.... fun
