As you can see from Al's excellent photographic history of this restoration you can see the following.
PICS 1 thru 6 show teamwork in finish sanding already primed frame.
PIC 7 shows slowly growing 56 X Buick "parts department"
PICS 8, 9,10 shows "Borsma Construction" progress on new bay.
We have several projects going on simultaneously. The 56X frame restoration, the disassembly of the differential to check the axle and differential bearings, the continued restoration of the 1929-55X Buick (not seen is Dick Saddler working on this), "Boorsma" construction team working to install an insulated wall so that the car hoist can be used in the cold winter, and Rick's continue research of all the one-of-a-kind parts that were made for this 56X. A portion of these are shown on the table.
Since this work session the two axles were taken to NAPA to have new bearings installed.
