Well, lets get started....
I have allways wanted to get an old car and restore it, but never knew what kind I wanted, but has allways been fund of the 50's. Living in the northern part of Norway kind of makes it hard to get parts as well. Today the internet is great for those things....
Anyway, I saw an ad in a Norwegian internett-site, and decided to take a look at the project.
It was a 1958 Roadmaster 2dr ht. Not many left of these cars!! Once I met the car, it just spoke to me and told me to bring it home..... So I did!!
In may, last year, I picked it up and started on the project. The frame was allready blasted and painted, and most of the rust was taken, so this was a good start for a beginner like me.
The front of the car is off now, and the engine has been toren down and delivered to an engine-shop for cleaning and boring. This is a matching number car, so I really want to be able to use the original engine-block.
I have also blasted and painted some of the engine components and also some of the torpedowall components. I also got a shipment of gaskets and kits for the front end, so this one is up next.
