Things are moving along great. The front suspension is almost completely rebuilt and looking great. Upper and lower control arms, new end links, new center bushings and the mounts are cleaned up and repainted, sway bar cleaned and painted, and the strut rods cleaned up painted.
I have also cleaned up and painted the drive shaft, finished up the inner wheel houses (the passenger's side needed a small welding repair to the battery tray), and have replaced the one small rust damage spot on the frame with a small patch.
In other news, a couple of very cool finds ... I got a correct, 1967 Mercury Monterey console with shifter in very good shape. Although the shifter is a long ways off from being as cool as the '68, it goes very well with the way-cool, and ultra-rare, power locks set up that I picked up. It's actually part of the convenience group that is built into the console. Going to need a bit of work to get it looking nice, but it will clean up nicely.
I'll post some pictures soon!
