Finally getting started!

Well, I was hoping to be well on my way by now but  a few of my neighbors changed my plans for me. I ended up doing 2 break jobs and a garage door opener install. So late Saturday afternoon I got some time to give a little love to the Coronet. I also had a chance to work on it today. The ball joints were due as well as new callipers and break pads. Later this week I'm hoping to get to the intake and carb.

Sunday after I was tired of working on the car for the day I took a trip down to the fab shop to discuss the future of the 1950 Dodge Coronet. My buddy Dustin is going to run the fuel lines and the break lines for me. With a LOT of luck we might be able to have it running by the time it leaves there. While at the fab shop I had a chance to see the 1939 Pontiac, they built in the fall, fire up when they were bring it in the shop. The Pontiac turned out pretty cool! It sounded fantastic with such a short wheel base and big exhaust.
