The most extensive project of the winter. Completely restored a car. 1971 AMF GTX. This belonged to my great Aunt/Uncle, and I remember driving the wheels off it as a kid. Literally. As the oldest grandkid on that side of the family, after their family was done with it, it ended up in my hands. I remember it being awesome. When my dad pulled it out of the attic last fall, the boss cringed and told me to throw it away. I almost agreed. Great uncle had brushed over original paint, and after a little strategic sanding, and some recon on the internet machine, I found out what it was, and places for replacement parts. Then began about a 2 month journey, an hour a night after the mongrels were in bed to get it done.
