Oh Nola Gal thats what we are here for. I have gotten some really good tips and ideas just reading some of these posts. That old American iron rides so nice very solid not twitchy at all and parts are easy to come by its like rebuilding a Chevy or any General motors car from the late 50's till the mid to late 80's there are so many parts out there its unbelievable. New old stock and reproduction stuff. Those decals on my Continental are reproductions of the originals and you can't tell them from the originals. Its a lot of fun to take something near a basket case and rebuild into a thing of beauty.
