Good news, will be transporting un-painted shell back to "Treasure Chest" next week.

Picking up a little bit.

Did take the fenders and drill holes for Biscayne emblem and 427 marker bezels.
Have NOS, Used and Aftermarket in stock.

Plan is to correct a style line on one fender, reprime.
Hope to refinish underside of fenders, header panel and hood in Satin black before wrapping and storing those parts.

Still plan on setting body on rotisserie prior to returning to the "Treasure Chest"

That must mean business is picking up. I know that is what you need and want, but it sure would have been fun to see it get painted.

I like large automobile families.
The "1968" Family has 7 Post cars including Biskwik, Basket Case and another one I have not named yet.
Plus a Biscayne Big Block wagon and the green Impala Custom.
The three posts mentioned plus the Impala Custom are all solid.
Also several more (4) cut up shells (1- Custom, 2- 2dr post and 1-4 door) on rolling frames stashed in two containers.

Vickie and I dated and got married in a 1968 Biscayne 427cu/385hp Grecian Green post car, thus the soft spot for them.
Started acquiring 1968 cars a little over 15 years ago.
Have parted out a bunch, have full shelves and boxes to prove it.

Wandered through 42 states and one Canadian Province dragging all that iron home.
A lot of bonding with Vickie, and our two kids on multiple trips.

Currently repeating the Binge buying with 2003-2005 Suburbans.
Parting 6 or 7 will end up with 2 rock solid dry units plus 3-4 drivers with some Midwest wear and tear.
Also a little bit of a C-4 Corvette and 1956 Bel Air thing going on also.

I am truly blessed,beers
Karl
