Python does good work but be cautious! After a 1.5 year ordeal dealing with Stewart, it took 3 attempts to get the correct webbing on my belts and in the end they still were not what we both agreed on using. Again the final product is good, but he has other issue going on that may lead to you...

Do not rely on the oil gauge, sender could possibly be no good. Hook up a good known working mechanical oil pressure gauge and see what pressures you are actually getting. Low limits of 10 PSi per 1000 rpm's is ok. More is better. When you rev the engine, does the needle move up?

From what i recall, the floors and frame rails seemed OK. Once the car is blasted or dipped, you'll know exactly what you are working with. With it needing quarters and door skins, you can expect some of the other sheet metal needing replacing. This car deserves a correct restoration. The plus...

I have seen this car up close. My cousin was the original seller from the craigslist Ad last month. He picked it up with the intention of restoring but ended up selling due to too many projects. It was sold to a guy in Kelowna, then immediately went to auction. Now currently on eBay. The car...

I found this picture when searching the photo archive of the city I grew up in. (City of Vancouver). Was checking out photos of my old high school and this popped up. The photo had to be taken sometime in the early 80's. Hard to tell in the picture, but it might be my car! I bought mine in 1990...

Thanks Everyone. Although my GT/CS is awaiting restoration while I finish my 64 Fairlane build, I do lurk on this forum often. John

lol......you're being kind. I was thinking Christmas 2011

I'd have to agree with what Tim wrote. John

A quick question for those have have purchased DDL 32930 grill paint. Did you get it in a spray can, ready to use, or in bulk and have to add reducer/hardner and spray through a gun? If you got it from a spray can, what was the level of gloss when paint dried? Gloss, semi-gloss, eggshell or...

Ron How can payment be made. Does the checkout have option for Paypal or credit card payment. Would like to pre-order a couple shirts and a hat. Also are the hat logo's embroidered? Will the hat logo's be in black for all colors and white for the black hat?

Paul don't sell it!!! this car is the whole reason why you are writing the registry books. I don't think it would be too much to ask for full payment on books from people that have pre-ordered. 180 x 100 = $18000 That's a good start! My payment is on the way.

try these guys http://www.pythonrestoration.com/ I haven't used them myself, but heard good things about them. Let me know what you find out. I too am interested in getting a new set of dark red deluxe seat belts...

This is a long shot, but try contacting ICBC at the North Vancouver office and see if you can search your Father-in-law's name for previous vehicles he had owned. You may be able to get a VIN number. Without the VIN, it will be hard to find that specific car. Like I said in my previous post...

I have owned my GT/CS since 1990. Since then I have always kept an eye out for any GT/CS's locally. I have seen about 20-25 different cars in our area (originally from Vancouver, now in Surrey) and I have never seen a blue with white top CS.
