Oh man where to start.

4 Months between jobs, started a new job which has me glued to my desk all the time, Jason (The Resurrection Project) and I have bought and sold a few Bay Windows :wink: .

I'm back on track lately though finally spending some money on the project...picked up a super clean OG set of Foxcrafts and was able to get access to one of Northern California's secret vaults and escaped with OG vert decklid...Show season is tough for me to get anything done on my own projects since we are buying a lot of parts and cars lately..probably more updates after the ClassicS is over.

Time for a update....

Been super crazy busy with my new job so not much time to actually focus on the physical aspects of the car. I have been able to buy some trinkets as stated

Original 56-57 Vert Decklid

Set of OG Foxcraft Fender Skirts

NOS pair of industrial motor mushroom air cleaners for the dual carb set up

It's time to get this project back on track with tons of updates and in order to make that happen we were lucky enough to get the newest member of the TRP Family working on it....I'll let him or Jason introduce him, but in 1 day he's done a ton.....he's the real deal and going to push this project about 6 months ahead of what it would be without him.
