Re: Biscayne Resto Project
Picked up the seats today and put them in......Took it for a ride to the Insurance Guy's place so he could take some pictures and get the coverage started.........Now it went from a "Project"......to being a Car......
Here are some more Pic's......Loading up Friday for Monmouth/ LaHarpe.......                Original Trunk Splatter Paint......  It's been a Tedious Project filled with a lot of "JUNK" repro parts.....some good Parts......and "Good" people....I'll pass on the "Bad" experiences and talk about the "Good".........The car was pained by Pulera Collision Center in Kenosha, wi.......Great people to deal with....The Engine was built by Don's Automotive, also in Kenosha.....again "Great people......"Just Dashes" in California are the Greatest.......Vintage Stitch in Salem, Wi....did a great Job on the Seats and Headliner......Eric at Vintage Muscle Cars did the Carb......Again...."Thumbs Up" to Eric..... The biggest problems I had were not checking the parts against the originals when they came in....I assumed that the parts would be correct......It's just getting worse with some of the suppliers.......I had the best luck with "Ground Up" and D&R ..........Would I do it again....."You Betcha"......Already got something on the back burner....... Ken

Re: Biscayne Resto Project
Fantastic.
 In a way I'm kinda sad to see her finished since so many of us looked forward to the daily/weekly updates and stories. But I know how much this guy enjoys what he's doing so I'm betting we'll be treated to another saga before long. I can't wait to see her in person Friday afternoon, but even better than that..... we get to spend some more time with Ken & Paulette.  Drive safe my friend.

Re: Biscayne Resto Project
What a stunner
 Ken! She looks terrific. Sure can't beat original spatter! Enjoy!!!!!!  P.S. If it weren't "Tedious", you wouldn't be doing it right.

Re: Biscayne Resto Project
Ken...awesome is all I can say! Have fun with "the crew" at the Gibb show.
 I wonder what's on the back burner???  BTW, those look like "85mph" bugs on the front of the GTO

Re: Biscayne Resto Project
Ken....just an outstanding job you've done restoring this car. This thing gives me a woody for sure! This has been one of the most interesting threads on the site to date. You have something to really be proud of here, an outstanding and beautiful car. When will you be bringing the car down here locally so I can take a close look first hand? My hat is off to you my friend!!
