Might be disappointing to the hot rodders (and not my norm), but my plan as of now is to just take my time an detail the crap out of it. Then go through the fluids and mechanical systems, put on some new bias plies, and go cruising. I just don't have the heart to modify it and there's something appealing to me about being able to wake up a 66 year old car and just appreciate it for what it is
Good plan. Too many are taken apart and sold in pieces when the project stalls. Please keep us posted.
