1977 Spider on a poor mans budget

[TJBONES]

Its been a long time but I just about got my spider done. Paid 1100 for the car and put 700 into it and alot of labor. Everything was done by me, first car I ever restored, I learned alot of lessons some good some bad but it came out nice. Sadly this car was for my wife but we are now moving to the east coast(she has been there for the last 4 months and will never even get to drive it) I will be selling it as soon as I finish the interior.

Nice car. too bad your gonna sell it.

Its coming out so good i'm thinking I might surprize the wife and have it shipped back. I will be driving my bronco pulling a trailor. The problem is were renting a townhome now and I have no place to park it. No garage and a spider spells disaster........LOL

It was pretty scary painting outside but it all worked out. We sold are house and I miss my shop, I had a heated spray booth and it would have been nice to spray it indoors. Had to settle with spraying outside my rental property which is now in escrow I gota get out by the 1st of november thats when escrow closes(I hope).
If I keep it i'm sure i'll regret how I did the door panels when I burn my arm on the chrome pieces I put just over the armrest.
Oh well live and learn.

Was that fence white before you stated painting? The car looks great,a shame you have to sell.Hope it works out so you can keep it.

I'll store it here
There has to be a cost effective way to get the car back east somehow....How big a trailer can the bronco pull ..Too bad can't pull like a "B" train.
