Location: atlanta		I'll post it here and also in the wanted section, I need a 61 Plymouth (preferably a Fury) drivers side front fender real bad, this one may be useable, but it does have some damage and rust through under the headlight bucket. If any one has one to sell, PLEASE contact me, the closer to Atlanta the better, but not a deal breaker.

Location: atlanta		disillusionment is starting to set in again, this car will NEVER be what I want it to be, and I honestly don't have the bucks to do it like I want, guess I'll have to bite the bullet and make it presentable, and as long as i have fun with it, that's ok too. This car reminds me of the old Robert Palmer song, simply irreistable, " She's so fine there's no telling where the money went, She's all mine there's no other way to go" I'm a freakin' Virgo, wadda ya expect, guess that's why I ended up in Electrical/electronic/phys/mech calibration in the Navy, Ya know the old Calibration sayin', Ain't no such thing as close enough, even perfect" :-)

By the way, i just got my radiator support, fan blade, A/C brackets and idler, fan and lower motor pulleys, motor mount shields, hood latch from the powder coaters, will make it more durable.


Wow...sounds like Christmas over at your garage!

There's nothing like unwrapping those "new again" old parts, ready for installation.

Location: atlanta		Yep, the parts are turning out very nice, thankfully I have worked out a deal with the powdercoaters and it's all pro-gratis!, besides, unwrapping powdercoated car parts is about as good as it gets for this old geezer anymore, now that all the rich, young, blondes have forsaken me.
