After being idle for more than 30 years, my Speedster started and moved on its own today. Now all I gotta do is save my money so I can go back to the body shop and get that other fender done. :) Bill
Wow... I'm not so impressed that you got it moving (although that has to be a gratifying achievement) but the bodywork on that thing is amazing! You ought to be proud... your project is a little more, um, ambitious than mine. what happened to the fender, or did it just never get done?

You do realize that any alignment you do before the whole front end is on, radiator filled with fluid, etc. is only going to be a rough guess, right?

Actually there is very little that I know for sure Nate other than I do most everything twice. The first time is usually a bitch or I spend more time worrying than actually doing. The second time is usually easy. I expect this will be the same. I'll learn how to do it with about 120 pounds of wood pellets on the frame to make believe I got to fenders, a bumper, a gravel pan, grill and a hood screwed on. It should make the second time easier. Bill
That looks amazing. I envy your body/paint skills. I can handle mechanicals but the welding and body work I just don't know how to do. Can't wait to see the finished car!
