Thanks Matt for adding this new section! Here is a pic of my 8 year project, a 1961 Chevy Belair bubbletop. Since starting this project, I have had 2 different girlfriends, changed jobs twice, moved twice, built a new shop, got married, and had a kid. Man, I need to get this car done soon!
508 Cadillac engine
Ford 9" rearend
4 wheel disc brakes

Thank you Rich, I am pretty proud of my shop! I am lucky to have a wife that understands my need for wrenching on the toys.
You are correct on the "what now" statement. This is the fifth old Chevy that I have restored and as soon as I get them done, I sell them. They are not worth much half done, so that keeps the ol' bucket of bolts off ebay for a couple more days!!

i also have to ask what is the big deal about ford rear ends. i have never found them to be that great the danas are a better deal in my opinion.
