The 'bird has landed! James from Intercity Lines unloaded this morning at 9 a.m. and gave me a hand getting her awake in the very un-California like weather we're having.

I do have a bit of work to do to make her roadworthy and a bit more to make her pretty, but I think that a frame off will be the plan for this 'bird. It's a very good car, but has been sitting so long that everything needs to be touched for safety's sake. Especially the rancid California gasoline from the early 90s...and the factory top with the consistency of peanut brittle.

But since my priorities lie elsewhere at present, there will be plenty of time to formulate a plan.
