Nice. That looked like a great project. I wish I had the time. I'm sure you will build something pretty special.

Sounds interesting. Fuel injection?
As long as it is solid, you are half way there with a Ghia. Mine is awaiting rockers when family and work allow the time.

 tiny rust spots were spot blasted and all the pecker dents removed. the ready to paint in the advertisement would have resulted into a disaster had we not gone to bare metal. |
