It is strange how they don't resemble a car when all that sets there are bits and pieces.  Once the frame and body are back together and covered with color it seems that things are really coming along quickly! 

It looks like you're in the home stretch and it looks GREAT!  As Rich said, "more pics, info please".

Wow, thats gonna be great!!!
Another Del Rio coming back !

Loving the wheel tire combo! Highly unusual and very different, but really complements the body color !
would you mind sharing the type, width and size of wheels and tires. looks like a modern Eliminator version ? Redlines work so well with the green !

Thanks for the kind words but the garage is not that clean , Especially since I was buffing some of the stainless trim yesterday lol . Yes the rims are Cragar Eliminators . They are like the old Cragar GT rims of the 60s and the tires are 225/70/15 . The car will have a late 60s vibe when done . The power plant is a 5.0l with the factory fuel injection and aod trans. Every day has been like Christmas lately as I am opening up boxes of stuff that I have bought over the years for the car .
Here is a pic of NOS unabtainium , custom ,wagon,ranchero tail light extension gaskets .....
HAPPY MOTORING

Thanks, and right back at 'ya!   :headbang:

When I was fourteen years old, I was amazed at how unintelligent my father was. By the time I turned twenty-one, I was astounded at how much he had learned in the last seven years!

The interior is still a little sparse but I am thinking about doing it in a two tone grey .
