The Build
After searching all over for years and almost getting scammed, I found this beauty sitting in a garage in Bristol, VT. It had been there for 20 years! A friend of my brother needed room in his garage so it had to go. Lucky me!
Since I’ve had it, I did a front disc brake conversion and replaced the radiator. I am gradually replacing smaller components back to the original ones.
Owning a car like this has been a lifelong dream of mine. I am also a Photographer and Artist and I am using the car in photo shoots. I have a darkroom and can take pictures on film with vintage cameras and develop the film and print at home.
It is also a way to bond with my family. My brothers husband and father are all mechanics and I am learning from them.
