Well the maiden voyage of 2 laps about 2 miles around the neighborhood was sort of a success. It made some odd noises, some smoke and an awesome burnout! Still need to do some more adjustment on the brake pushrod length but it does stop! Still got a huge list of little things.

Resurrected auto relic. It's got the look, character, and 62 years of history.

Brought the Catalina Sedan home today with the intent to use it as a parts car for the Wagon. But I don't know it's on awfully good condition!

I know, but I need parts for the Wagon.
I will have to dig a little deeper. I haven't done anything to this one in 4 years. There still a 1981 Playboy in the trunk!

Eman is right! It’s funny when you see a pic of a good looking woman, then realize she’s old enough now to be your grandma!
