[1961 fury restoration]

this is the '61 fury my dad and I are restoring . The car belongs to me so I started with the block sanding, and the DA sanding . Then the metal that had car cancer  was cut and new metal was fabricated , por 15 was applied the inside and then it was welded on. I did the wet sanding   My left rear fender panel has been restored and now The  passenger rear fender panel is being worked on . 

If any of you seen the movie Hell and Mr Fudge I did own the black '61 fury that was in the movie  but sadly I lost the car in a garage fire over 3 years ago .That was thanks to some one's carelessness. Yes I have thought about making this person pay for the car. I was very lucky to find another 1 to replace it  I uploaded some photo but the last was the last was the saddest day of my life. My dad bought the black '61 from the original owner and then he gave it to me for my birthday in 2011. The 1 I have now is a PS PB and added  AC ,. I will be repainting it black like my last 1.

 

[Reo Model G 2tn truck from 1926]

Hi Juha, I am in Australia restoring a 2 tonne "G"  model, i have not been able to locate any spares here in Australia, I am looking for a carburettor and a workshop manual. I have started a blog on my progress reoresto.wordpress.com if you wanted to have a look, if i come across any spares i will email. there was a complete truck in America on ebay but not economical to bring here.

Agree with Digger 914, should be able to do a light wax with quality products and cheesecloth, alternatively you could put it on a boat and i would look after her  Love the old dear and very rare over here in Australia.

Hi Joe in Canada, go for it with your ears back man, never to old, buy finished and enjoy, or restore enjoy and keep the mind and brain working ( sometimes on overtime).

 I have had a 1926 REO Speedwagon for 10 years and have only just started the resto, also assisting my brother with a 27 international, love every minute I am working on them. The Reo is a big task i have a blog ( my children insisted I track it with a blog) reoresto.wordpress.com have a look and happy restoring.

Thanks Mark, I am heading through Deepwater at Christmas and intend to call and see Peter, I was past his place a couple of months ago but was unable to contact him, hopefully more success this time. I intend to join the Reo club in the new year (just one of those things i have not got around to yet)

Again Thanks.
