Update #1 62 Faclon Futura Gasser "Strange Bird"

Pulled the Strange Bird into the shop to finally begin work. Interior is gutted, drivetrain removed, and the trim is coming off. My shop monkey Nic has been a big help.
As soon as all that is done, a transverse leaf setup, will be mocked up, and I'll start building the 2x2 frame to beef up the undercarriage. This will have long ladder bars and leaf springs in the rear with a panhard bar, and radius rods with a panhard holding the front.












Found a little rust in the B-pillar.....no big deal
