That's pretty cool Garry! It'll be great to look back in the months/years to come to see how you started the project. I read that your looking to put some electric fans on the car, I may be selling mine. They're "Flex-a-lite" 12" dual fans with adjustable thermostat. Summit part number FLX-230. Let me know if you're interested, I want to get me an aluminum radiator and mount fans that pull instead of push (behind radiator vs. in front of), although you can reverse them. I'm only puzzled about the fact that the puller and pusher versions have different part numbers and a different price. Maybe the blades are different.

What's the status of the '79? Have you been working it?

Finally put the car on the lift preparing to pull the motor/tranny ... got a good look at the damage from the wreck ... the rear is pretty bad with the feathers, but as it seem, the main reason for the giant oil puddle was the oil filter, which was nicely crushed by the left muffler pipe, also breaking where it screws into ... the oil pan itself is dented, got to see whether it's salvageable or not ... pictures coming up soon ...
