Stefano, we are shooting for the November MCACN show so I'll keep you posted. Also want to thank you for selling me the car. It turned out to be everything you said it was, just took me 8 years to decide to restore it. Hopefully I'll see you in November.

As evidenced by these pictures, Neil Young &amp; Crazy Horse were dead on with the title of their album &quot;Rust Never Sleeps&quot;. The car has been stripped and some minor rust issues were uncovered. The passenger fender had rust creeping up the side where it meets the door so will be replaced with a NOS fender. Other rust issues are minor, mostly pin holes in trunk and floor pans. The driver's floor pan had a 2&quot;x2&quot; approx spot rusted through and will be patched with donor GM original sheet metal. I'm told the project is on track for completion for showing at the MCACN in November. I only have this photo of the passenger fender to upload, the other's showing the referenced issues are in JPEG format and can't be uploaded. If anyone knows how to convert to JPG I'll post them as well.
