Classic Summer Project

Post by ihengineer76 »

Here are a few pictures of my summer project. It's a 1958 Lone Star Malibu and has been in the family since new when my great grandpa bought it. Over the years, the paint had flaked and peeled, so I gave it a new coat of lipstick. I will post pictures of the finished product when I finish buffing it out. I took it out today for a shakedown run, and it performed well. There are still a couple of tweaks needed, but I was happy with it so far.

Thanks for the compliments. The pictures were taken at my brother's place. Currently, my shop is under a bit of a renovation.
