She’s home, 69 Beaumont, Merry Christmas to me


Cleaned our other side of garage enough to squeeze her in, and even before it rained......again.

For those of us who don't know this story,

We would love this car to be featured so we can hear all about it.

I love happy endings.

 I would be honored, thank you for asking.  Weather is not too conducive to pictures right now but supposed to brighten up next week just before Christmas so Ill pull her out of garage for some pics.  Im also off between Christmas and New Years giving me some time to write a quick story. 

Would that timing work?

 Thanks, wasn't sure about them at first but theyre growing on me. They sort of remind me of the Pontiac Rally wheels on Firebirds etc. and being 17s and 45 series tires help the handling but are surprisingly compliant.

 Todd does the story, so I hope he sees this and responds. 

Sure looks like a nice car...

 For sure, haven't stopped smiling yetbiggrin  Im always browsing and it just popped up!  I think Ill just enjoy her for now, she drive real nice on the short 15 minute drive home but probably front discs and maybe tubular control arms while apart is all I can think of for now?

What's been done to the suspension and steering, to work with the big boots?  I'm going with a RideTech tubular control arm/coilover set up on my '66, but it's only running 16s with 60 profile tires.  Even now, with the original suspension still under it, the turning circle is in the "give me 40 acres, and I'll turn this rig around" range.
