About The Car

My photo
We got this car off of Ebay. It was in Dora, AL. We bought it for around $2500 which isn't bad. This car was in a basement for about 20 years, then sold to the guy we bought it off of, which kept it in a garage for a while too. So we were very confident that the body was in fairly good condition and it was. YAY!! Then we transported it from Dora to here in Aberdeen. Using a horse trailer A.K.A My dad's Van trailer. Now me (Danielle) and my dad (Phil) are going to return it to it's former beauty. Can you tell I love this car? I hope you will enjoy watching it transform as much as we will.

Don't we look concerned.

Getting ready to sandblast and sandblasting

Taking out the bolts that held the seat belts in.




Tossing it to the side.



Cody pretending it's a slip n slide




Before




During. Ther red was the primer and the silver is the metal.



Man that's a big difference




All that was up there was tar and asphalt. We couldn't torch that stuff out but the sand took care of it.





He's getting up or I should say down around the dash and firewall.





That is how we were moving it in and out of the garage.




In it goes. If you look at the date on the first photo and this one it took us 4 days to get it all sandblasted. The day after this last picture was taken it started raining for like three days we were so glad to have it done.
