Wrecked going to GNRS

[05gt]

Glad to hear it's coming along good for you. Always sucks when something liek thathappens to any car, let alone, something that you've spent so much time on building. Good luck with it!!!

Getting there

Don't know why the pics are small. Hit a wrong button again

Thought it was an eye test.

Glad to see that that beautiful car will be on the road again soon.

Thanks, I was a bit worried myself. Lucky to have a good man fixing it

Ron:

The guy whom you have doing the repair work on your Ranchero shared with Rick and me those photos and discussed what he found and did to bring your 57 back onto the road.  We were both pleased with what we saw and are familiar with his quality work.  He recently did a Fairlane 500 Club Victoria for one of our long time friends and fellow 57 lover.  For the life of me I can't remember this metal craftsman's name, but I've seen his work before.  I've attached a shot of the Fairlane 500 he did for our friend, taken at Knott's yesterday.  I'm going to post photos of the remaining 57's at Knott's in the events section.

I met him a long time ago. His name is Randy. Used to have a 59 Ranchero with a Blown Hemi
on Alky. Ran 140 in the 1/4 mile. I've seen the Fairlane Post car. Nice
Bet your Car looked great.

Ron:

That's interesting about Randy with a blown Hemi in a Ranchero.  Did the two of you ever "go off together"?

Thanks for the comment about my 57.  Yes, it got a lot of attention and many comments.  It was a very fun day for both Rick and me.  There were 15 57's at the show and we did miss yours.  Glad to know it is well on the way to recovery.  Congratulations.

Looks great Bob. Never raced Randy. My Ranchero only ran 118 mph in the qtr. His was crazy fast.
Couldn't get the power to the ground. It would have pulled the shaft out of the trans at full throttle. Chrysler 4 spd.
Probably run 160 if  u could stand on it. Fun days
You Guys have fun this show season.

[shopratwoody]

He shot mine early Wed morning. Just gotta color sand and buff and re install everything. Rear bumper still
in shop.

[shopratwoody]

Got the Ranchero back today. It's Black and straight. Randy did a great job. Waiting for some of the polishing
work to return. I'll get a pic asap.

That's great news Ron!  So glad it was saved!  Just hate it when insurance companies want to total one out.  My 66 Falcon Ranchero got totaled and I thought it could have been saved.  Wasn't mine any more so I couldn't fight the settlement.

The Insurance Co was great. American Collectors. They paid everything that was asked for. Over 12,000.00

Got all my stuff insured with American Collectors. Often wondered how they would react. Nice to know this. They are really easy to work with when adding an additional car. Everything done over the phone with a few emailed pics. Agreed value is no problem with them.
