Alright Guys and Gals, its that time of the month again. This month we are going to do things a little different...... We have a Sponsor for the August CoTM, Opentracker BBQ products has graciously donated a Dolly Buntan to the winner (comes neatly wrapped in an ORP t-shirt), if you do not cook, I will offer up a StangFix T-shirt if the winner would prefer that, if the winner choices Dolly, the StangFix shirt will go to the second place vote getter.

For the August CoTM, we are going to vote on Project cars. We want to see some progress you have made on your car. If you replaced the floorboards we want to see before, during and after pictures. If you repaired a PO's hack job, we want to see before and after pictures. Two rules however, 1. your car can not be "done", as in drivable, show/cruise ready and 2. you must post up at least two projects you have done. if you replaced the floorboards and the front suspension that would count as two.

We want to see some of your work, or work that you have had done, or helped doing. We also want to help motivate people to Get 'er done........

Does that mean I can't post my "rotisserie" picture again?

I started with this... here's a picture the day I bought my 67. It doesn't look so bad, does it? Granted the paint looked a hell of a lot better in the picture than in person, but all i can say is beware of what lies underneath old paint.

Then, after stripping all the old paint jobs and bondo, I find the car needs a TON of new metal... radiator support, torque box, partial floor on driver's side.

But I left the serious exterior body work to the pros... both full quarter panels, full roof skin and tail light panel.

Coming home after paint...

I need to take some more new pictures, because my engine & trans is back in place; all the electrical has been reinstalled; headliner has been installed; and the front & rear glass goes in this weekend.

enough said.

I guess we only have two choices this month, but both have come a long way.

Dne has done an awesome job on her '67

Some of her projects:

Making room for her roller perches by grinding the upper control arm to make room:

installing, removing, cutting and reinstalling her springs:

Lets not forget, she installed her motor, by herself!

And Garner67's FB
The canvas "before" the artwork

torn down to its skeleton:

And some very nice sheet metal and paint:

torn down for metal replacement:

Some pretty new glass installed and some nice shiny trim pieces
