1971 Plymouth Sport Fury GT Brogham & U code Super Comando

[LeBaron1973]

Sounds great, I'd do it too if I were there. BTW, get that 8-track serviced, the rubber drive belts are probably worn out by now then she'll be perfect.

Happy trails

I love those 1 1/2" whitewall snow tires. I'd hang them on the wall.

Kind of a drastic way to do the brakes, isn't it?

Bill, you must be having flashbacks.

I thought that was the approved method..... :head_smack:

I love the way he stages all the parts before photographing. Excellent reference material.

Better believe it! Paul simply amazes me every timed I see pictures of his work. Most of these pictures were taken in the area of his shop dedicated to painting, I think he likes to work in there because of the bright 360 degree lighting. However, considering the number of paint jobs he's completed in that room, you'd expect to see some over spray on the walls and floor. But nadda, not a spot of paint, grease, oil or dirt anywhere in his shop. Even his "dirty" shop is clean enough to eat off the floor. My father believed you could always get a good measure of a man by looking at his tools, messy tools and junk all around equated to sloppy workmanship. Paul is one of a kind.

The place I picked up a Pizza today wasn't that clean.

I love looking at bare stub frames.
You can see all the engineering that went into it.
