1972 Monte Carlo

1972 Chevrolet Monte Carlo I purchased on eBay sight unseen 10/05/2004 from a guy in Kansas. It arrived at my house in Fort Worth on 10/20. The pictures on the eBay add had made the car look quite a bit better than it really was. It was apparent the person that had painted it yellow was an amateur at best. In fact, it seems the more I have looked, the more I have discovered the previous restoration to be of very inferior quality. Not to be deterred, I sat out to revive the old girl and hopefully do it right.

Below are some pictures of the car shortly after it was shipped to me.
