RE: Our backwards resto....66 vert!

i didnt like the finish on the leaf springs so i completly stripped them and painted them so now they are pretty,..but im sure it wont last long,..
brake lines, and fuel lines installed, more of the bottom was stripped to the metal, painted and undercoated,...you can see whats done and whats not,...it is in need of two full wheel houses, two full quaters,...which i will start on in about a month or so,...driveshaft is also in along with new rear leafs, rear shackles with poly bushings
