That is beyond great! Hard to believe it is the same car. Is that the original front cross rail and front rail extensions?And clearly, had I not posted a couple of pages out of the shop manual for you I'm sure you would have given up in despair. I hereby take full credit for a successful restoration.

 

Very nice! You should be proud of a full restoration like that.

 

James, It is a fiberglass hood. I had to do some tweaking on it before paint... it's not perfect, but it turned out good enough...

 

Looks good. I thought from all the framing under the hood that it was all metal.

Nice job on the car.

 

Above and beyond a typical restoration. Nice work and beautiful car!!!

 

i love those white fastbacks with them blue rally stripes!
but why is it that so many fastbaclks I see are nose happy ? (ie: the front higher than the back) ?

i dunno.... It was parked in the driveway...which has a little incline...I'll have to get it on a level spot and look at it... All the suspension is new...with 1" lowering springs front and rear...

 

Wow, that looks awesome. You guys did a great job, be very proud of yourselves.[sm=smiley20.gif]

 

don't get me wrong,. the car looks great. do you have a picture from the side?
I'm jealous ...

 

It may take a few weeks for the springs to settle. You did an excellent job.
