Some of you may remember the story of the rolled over '68 Hurst Oldsmobile factory drag car that Kevin S.purchased a while back... 'Original Thread' ...Well I had watched that car even before Kevin had bought it and then after following another thread right here on this board, I was able to buy the car from Kevin spring of 2005. The car was not hurt anywhere near as bad as it looked in the pictures [not sure if I really mean that] I'd rather fix a dent than rust I guess... Nothing a new roof, door and a nose couldn't fix! Anyway finally clearing a spot in the shop, the work started on the car two weeks ago. 60 hours later, ALL the collision work is done. We've done everything in our power to save/straighten as much of the original sheetmetal as possible. At this point it's just 'normal' paint and detail from here. Thought you might like a peek at the process... Also, if I ever find the time [and when the server works] I try to keep some info here... www.68hurstolds.com [/ QUOTE ] that looks like an Arizona yard ...

Never heard of that problem before!!! Jim Glad to see the progress. Get it ready for the OCA nats in your area in 2010. I was in Tacoma a few months ago and drove by the old Russ Dunmire location,its still there all boarded up,some signage still remains. Paul
