I have been recently working with a Close friend on His car after he purchased it in May 9th 1982 and loosing focus on it and storing it since 1985. He has given me permissions to share a "Build" Thread here. We are looking forward to more work parties and the Goal of Finally cruzing together after 40+ years of anticipations

John & I were introduced to the "Trades" via a High school industrial trainee program at our local Public Naval Shipyard in 1981. We are from Different towns and schools yet out paths crossed. This does relate to the Car since we ended up competing for positions and obtaining our Marine Electrician Trade apprenticeships in the Same "Shop # 51" and ended up in classes and OJT work crews on the same Ships (Surface) and Boat (Submarines).

One day in late 1982 we were working on the USS Bainbridge (CGN-25) and during clean up he looked inside my Tool box and saw a photo of the Red Dog 1968 SSRS 396 Car and he made a off hand remark to the effect of, " Hey I have one of those (Cars)",,Ya , Ya Sure Buddie,,,

Good Ole' Days,
