thanks! each one took pretty close to 3 years. They were both really rough.. the convertible was extremely rough but salvageable

I have pics of both restorations but they were taken with a 35mm i'll have to scan them.

Are they for sale?

 

No, but anything is for sale if the price is right..

Very cool. Dual quads on a 283. I bet you can make the exhaust pipes spit raw fuel!

Dale,

 

Really nice cars.

 

You obviously have had that fender cover for quite some time. I work for CARQUEST and that logo was changed over 20 years ago.
