When we bought this car, there were many things that I should have looked at before we decided to buy it.  We bought the car at the Pomona Fairgrounds during the swap meet.  When we saw the car for the first time it was at about 6:30 in the morning and it still wasn't light out.  We were looking at another car nearby that was about $1200 more that what we spent on "Jezabelle", (the cars name).  When we bought the car we knew that it needed lots of TLC.  The original estimate of the time frame was about 6 months before we finished the interior and then about another year before we painted it.  So far we have finished the interior in 3 months and had it painted within 6 months.  I have also rebuilt an engine and installed it at one year.  the items that are left are the suspension and stuff like that.  The reason for the 'fast tracking' of the restoration is me.  As soon as we got the car I wanted to start working on it.  We have been very fortunate that we haven't had any unexpected problems.  Well enough right now about all of this.  I have divided the photos into three main areas plus a page with thumbnails to view.  I have tried to give as many before and after pictures as possible.  With my digital camera I have many more pictures at home that I am showing here taking up loads of space.  If you would like to see something specific let me know and I have probably photographed it. ON TO THE PICTURES!!!!
