My Catalina is still not done. Originally just a paint job, then it was oh let me make this nicer too etc. You know the story.
Well without the proper plan in place and working ass backwards its still not done.
I worked on it for 7 years Shocked and with other cars I wanted to do I took it to a long time high quality shop.
Now its been there over 2 years affraid

I was hoping to possibly be driving it this summer...…..how many times a month would you call the shop lol!

Hi Finfan, it's nice to read you. It's the desert here.

In my country 2 years is nothing unusual.
The small Italian car stayed 3 years with the painter.
You have to know how to be very patient.
La Bonneville will leave in March, but in which years will it be painted ???? I may have white hair Laughing

Hello JP!!

Thank you for the kind words of encouragement. I am sure I will survive but cannot promise no gray hairs!!

My car is not even close to being of the quality yours is but I will be happy knowing I helped with a couple of the parts on yours when your beautiful car is done.

Look forward to both being done!!

I need to learn how to post pics here again...….

On this subject, I am looking for a front stabilizer bar.
Mine is eaten away by rust.

If you know one in good condition, I'm interested.

I cannot see the rust in the pic but I am sure I can come up with one to replace it. Where would I put the shipping label? lol!

The bar is rusty at the location of the fasteners.
Half the diameter is missing.
if you have one, I am a buyer.
