Hello to all. Jeff(Psychosquirl) pointed me to this forum. I am also out in AZ about 30 min from Jeff. My name is Jeremy and I thought I would share my cars. I have a lot to go still, so bear with me. Here is what I have so far. This is the 66 that is getting body and paint done.

Now for the Turd. This ol girl is the one that I am excited about.

Here is some work on the front end. It was punched on the lower left corner and wrapped the metal up so time to replace and repair.

That is where I am now. I have to weld up a few things on the patch panal and then the horn mount. Next is to fit the patch panal for final weld, followed by front apron. After the front apron will be the final weld of the dash. After the dash is finished up, this is next:

Progress will be slow due to the fact that it seems I can only get a few hours a week to work on her. More to come, so stay tuned. If anyone has suggestions please feel free to let me know. I want to do things right the first time around.
