Just a little photo update of where i'm at these days. I've got most of the nasty Body Work issues fixed now. Keeping in mind this is not a thorough resto right now, but an effort to get it sound enough for a Safety Inspection so it can be moved under its own power.

The paint was/is a bit of a drama. It had to be painted in order to at least look "Safe" and complete, and I didn't have the time or facilities to source correct paint and properly paint it. In addition, there may be some more body finessing later on, so it would be a collossal waste of expensive paint to do so now. So in the mean time it gets Canadian Tire OD and Flat Black in the same overall pattern as before. I started hitting the spots that i'm done working on, doesn't look too too bad.

So, i'm getting very close to starting to put it all back together. We were aiming for a top-less New Years Day drive to Tim Hortons, but that would require a small miracle in spare time....









Lastly, ive been going through all of the Drilled Holes in the Body of this thing trying to figure out what was where regarding Comms and other Bits. Thanks to Eric B and Andy H, i've got the layout for what Comms Installations were in it. That covers a ton of holes. But there are a couple more that are bugging the hell out of me. On the Pass. Side Inner Rear Fenderwell, there are 2 Holes. Every single CDN 151 I have seen has these, but i've never found out what was attached. Anyone?
