Cars

	59 Eldorado The color is Persian Sand Interior is pink as is the vinyl top carburetors are 3 Rodchester 2BBL with a vacuum linkage (this is 100% stock) Picture was taken at the Madonna Inn, Oct 2000. The Madonna Inn is the perfect place for such a car.
	These two photos were taken with a Kodak DC-20 camera. As you can see, the car really does have fins. And, quite a rear overhang too. It's the only thing I've ever driven where you can see the tail lights in the rear view mirror. But the tri-power makes it pretty fast.

	Well, it's now 2002 and the car is progressing slowly. Very slowly. The engine is done, the body is back on the frame, but there is a lot of woodwork to be done before I can remount the doors and do the interior . In fact, it's sat so long there are some cracks in the paint that will need to be repaired. But some day it will be on the road. The question is, "When?".

Jul 2010	This photo shows the "after" view, I've replaced the rear door support and the dogleg, this is, as you might imagine a bit of a chore, it requires removing the rear window frame (half of which has been reinstalled in this photo), removing the sheet metal covers over the door support and dogleg, getting the old rotten wood out, cleaning up the metal and priming to protect it, and then fighting to get the new pieces of wood into the dogleg and behind the welded vertical bracket. Clearly there was no intent at the time that this would be a routine operation. Another 'After' view The rear window before installing the soft wood frame around it More on rebuilding the rear doors Diagram and information on hood hinge I need someone to fabricate (or tell me what tool to use)
