56X Buick Century

Most of us had the job of sanding the frame getting it ready for a coat of primer as all the repairs had been done on the frame. This was a big job but by the end of the day a new coat of primer covered the frame. Since most of us worked in this area today I will not name them.

Car Hoist area.

Here Bob directed Chuck, Paul and Don in finishing up the final insulation and preparing the area for the dry wall installers.

Al Batts as usual records the work activity with the camera which really creates a visual record while Mike maintains the financials for the Futurliner project. Rick continues to do the research and has made some vital contacts. One of those contacts has been Chuck Jordan who very recently passed away. This is a real loss to the old car hobby as Chuck's career has been in the design of cars for GM.

Following this e-mail is more photos.
