Spent my working lifetime in auto & auto body repair, always had a project to putter w/after hours. Age caught up w/me 3 years ago just before final touches were applied to this piece. Foundon eBa, NYC car w/only rot a small hole in1/4 panel near tail light. sand blasted &sealed all needy surface, inside & out including inside doors. NEW: top, tires, interior, fuel pump, tires.& radiator.. All seam, joints, notches,& natural creases have been smoothed w/ BondoGlas, less than a quart for the whole car. Needs: instrument panel voltage regulator, starter relay . engine compartment & interior detailed. passed a good road test when I bought it, has not been run since.Textured paint finish was intentional.
