Some back story info. Was originaly bough back in 68 to go get grocerys. Then sat from 84 to 94 when my uncle bought and drove for week till gas tank rotted through. After that it sat cover till 2004 when i kicked a can and found a tire. I decided to clear the area and found the car. Funny part the whole family thought we sold it yrs prior. Told them i wanted car to fix up so they gave it me for my high school graduation. The car has all matchin numbers drivetrain with 50,000 miles. Over a yrs time me and my grams painted and fix a few things. Then my son came along and car got put to the side. Its been 2 1/2 yrs since motor cranked over so its time to start the build back up.

Great car, great story! How far along is it right now? What is your plan for the restoration?

Your '68 and mine are close cousins... they differ in the front seats and the center console. Yours is Meadowlark Yellow, right? It looks good in the photos, much better than the overspray remnants left in my trunk.

Best wishes on your project!!
