I spoke to Bob yesterday and like Dan above, wished Bob a "HOPE YOUR FEELING BETTER"

Re: Bob D'Antonio`s 1969 Ram Rod - 4 Speed Post Sedan
 

Bob is a very nice guy, I hope you feel better as well.

Dan, Ryan, Dave, thanks for the well wishes. I'd never guess that food poisoning could last almost a week.

As for El Malo. Have not gotten too far this Winter. I had a building lined up but the owner had second thoughts since we're not running a business, but just a hobby. I think he was afraid we'd bail after a few months. My son and I actually found a smaller, less expensive place that will be available April 1.

Here are pics of the car a little cleaned up. And the seats scrubbed.

Seats cleaned up pretty good. Mouse damage on the rear seat is getting fixed by the upholstery shop with new cotton batting.

Way COOL Bob. Feel better.

Great photos…thanks for sharing. It is sad Oldsmobile & Pontiac are no longer. People forget just how active Oldsmobile was in performance all through their history including many varying styles of Motorsports and Marine Racing. It makes you long for the days when American Car Companies ruled the roads.

Thanks for sharing with sYc guys, and thanks for the new seat pictures!!

Get well!

The new building sounds exciting, I am a 1.25 car garage guy mysel:-)

El Malo looks almost new in the important areas, but the bigger question...........did you remove the dead mouse from the grill or did The Mrs:-)

Bob D - Aerospace 303 is a wonderful product that will help protect the original vinyl. It also is magnificent at aiding in a deep clean. No shine and no damage.

Keep up the good work.
