I am looking at a 1966 Cadillac limo. It's a good solid car from texas. The interior is rotten. Motor rebuilt recently. They only want $1200.00. My Tbird I am sending all the chrome out to Powder coat. I thought it would look good against the flat black. I don't have heat in my barn so havn't done much with bantam in about a week.

Wow. Thats why I'm doing powder coat. All my chrome and stainless is straight. I thank it will be $400 to $500. I'm thanking about putting Torq thrust D rims on it.

It's a 64. I had it tubbed, tailgate welded shut, all the seams filled, all the emblems filled, side trim removed, stake holes filled and the dash smoothed. Got it back from the painter late summer. He had it for three years. He took it off the frame and also painted that. My uncle did the rear end narrowing. It's just so cold in the barn. I'll get back on it in the spring. I get way too many irons in the fire sometimes. That's ok, I got more time than money anyways.

I kind of put my Tbird on the back burner untill spring. I have a keroseen heater but doesn't help any when it's this cold. I lowered it 1 inch. It has a police intercepter in it. I'm going to ad a eldbrock fuel injection in spring.
