Who has the "record" for the longest build known? I have to be in the running for the crown.
No kidding... after owning this car for over 45 years it is finally going off to the body shop and paint in mid July. One heck of a lot of work and money has transpired or been spent in the last two years. Darned if I know why it took this long but I see light at the end of the tunnel.
I think my wife wants it done more than me and that's a good thing.
All three sons were going to drive the car to their H.S senior proms when done... never happened that way! Maybe(big maybe) I'll to let my grandson drive it now.
Smart $$ would have sold it and bought one done. Though I think my $40.00 initial purchase price may have appreciated somewhat over the years.
