My 69 project
How I found it. Them "Redneck boys" in the background wanted to put it on a Subarban chassis!
After a bath and some new (used) wheels. This was the first time it moved under it's own power in over six years!
How it sits now. No motor, trans or paint. But the new top's installed!
It'll end up with a gloss black body and wheels and satin black trim. Engine wise will end up gloss black with dark metallic green accents.
I'll post more pics as progress allows.

Oooooohhhh.... Shiny!
Still dig that Monte! I can't wait to get home so I can get back to work on my '66. Maybe this spring we can hit Coyote Joe's together? That'd be cool!

Re: My 69 project
That looks great Bill! The 460 is such a sharp looking engine. I like the squared off valve covers.
So after the end of June (maybe) mine will be running again - maybe a cruise night at Coyote Joe's? Or the A&W on 14 mile. Two Lincolns would eat up the whole parking lot!
