Chad's restoration nears completion!
Chad is a Lutheran Pastor, and formerly
operated an auto body shop in Jansen, Saskatchewan. "I had been searching
for a Sport Fury around 12 years", Chad writes, "before I
came across this one, in a bush near the Canadian / U.S. border. It
had been there
since the mid-70's, and needed considerable attention (as you might
imagine).
I have owned it since 1999 and have done all the work myself - less chrome,
brakes, and heads. I've included
pictures from its previous restoration, while it was still
complete, as well
as a
picture
of its
new 413, and a couple of the partially completed interior. I've sent
2 also of its new paint job which I completed 2 weeks ago. Much of
the stainless will be this winter's project, and the chrome I hope
to get back in another 3 weeks."
This just in from Chad:
"Its been great to have access
to a site with other enthusiasts, particularly with regard the the
vast
knowledge
and helpful
advice left in the forum. Anyway, my Sport Fury is one step closer
to completion and I thought I'd send an update photo [above]. The last
time I sent pictures (last fall) it was largely in pieces, here is
where
she is today."
