THUNDER AND LIGHTNING PROJECT CARS

December 10th, 2008 | 60 Ford Wagon - Lightning, 60 Ford Wagon - Thunder, How-To

AFTER SEVERAL YEARS OF WORKING ON THESE 2 1960 FORD 2 DOOR WAGONS WE ARE PUTTING THE PUSH ON TO FINISH THEM. THIS TWO CAR PROJECT STARTED SEVERAL YEARS AGO WHEN MY SON JEFF WAS IN HIGH SCHOOL. THE PLAN WAS ONE LOW TECH CAR FOR HIM AND ONE HIGH TECH CAR FOR ME. THEY WOULD BOTH BE 2 DOOR COUNTRY SQUIRE WAGONS FINISHED IN BLACK WITH WOODGRAIN SIDES. JEFF IS NOW OUT OF SCHOOL AND 26 YEARS OLD. HIS INTERESTS HAVE CHANGE AND HE HAS A 1995 911 THAT IS IMACULATE. AT THIS POINT IT IS UP TO ME AND THE GUYS IN THE SHOP TO SQUEEZE IN THE TIME TO FINISH THESE BEFORE I’M OLD AND GREY. I WILL SRART POSTING UPDATES WEEKLY IF I CAN AND THERE IS A LOT OF INFO ON THE PROJECTS BACK ON OUR WEBSITE
