What with miscuglia

Miscuglio, you guessed it, is an Italian word, which loosely translates to:
mixture
blend
jumble
concoction
medley

I couldn't find a more appropriate name for this car

just got a chance to read your updates... man.... that dash is looking good.

Thanks Steve!
I had a little set back this week when I pulled a "final straw" act. I was picking up some of my extraordinary mess and put my left over vinyl on a shelf. As I turned away, I thought I saw the shelf move a bit
I spun back around just in time to fend most of the crashing shelf from coming down on the car.



The car and I both took a hit, thankfully minor. Makes me very glad to not have painted it yet!
Anyway, time for a major clean up!

Ouch!
And make sturdier mounts for the shelf

Six Molly bolts, way too much crap up there and the real problem, the bottom two shelves removed to clear a Windsor 351 on a stand. Once the leg buckled there was no number of screws that would have held it.
So I got everything cleaned up and made a nice new work bench to boot.



Then I cleaned everything up and put the old beastie away for a week while I head to Maine for the holidays.



Everyone have a great 4th!!!

Sweet picture there at the last! Also..I will not complain about my "cramped" working space ever again!

Safe travels, and enjoy some lawbstah for me.

my, thats a rather large first aid kit. hope it is just precautionary!

Neil, when I say crowded garage, I mean it! Maybe if I had a smaller first aid kit....

Beek, I also have two fire extinguishers! Hopefully those are precautionary!!!

lucky guys! i 'm so jealous! i have a small singe garage - so small it's impossible to work around the car, so my restoration takes place outside in the cold English weather.
I had to wait for months to get some good dry weather to spray the body. Then i had to t-cut all my wife's flowers.....from the overspray...

I feel for you cos! Hopefully you have a decent stretch o weather during summer! I look forward to your updates!

I sent the picture to my wife with the comment "at least our garage isn't this crowded".... She responded "in my mind it is" .... !

Speaking about weather, geesh rain rain and rain, that all it does, did I mention winds too

Well, here is my freak out weekend!



Wish I was in Chicago but no...
Hope all who made it are having a great time at freak out! I'll definitely be there next year, where ever there is!
