Re: Lost My 65

I am really close to having my 66 back together and drivable.
So I'm starting to think of what to do when I start on my 65.

Got the carpet tore up and she's been parked in a completely enclosed costco carport since I first drove her home.

I really need to quit looking at the parts forum.
I have quite a list of things I would like, but don't really need.
I have to prioritize my funds and concentrate on first getting my 65 to be a great daily driver and the body panels restored and protected.
I need to keep reminding myself that chrome knobs and the like is money that doesn't need to be spent when I have more important expenses.

So, first on my list is get the brakes upgraded.
