I've owned it for 19 years, and it's been almost 13 years since the car has seen the road. 2 months ago, I started to change every suspension bushing, along with the brakes, shocks and springs.
The motor is out, being completely-resealed and swapping a twin Weber sidedraft setup for the SPICA injection. Now, she's in primer, soon to be blocked, and then painted.
Naturally, she'll be ready right before winter... but she'll be done. My last "project"; finished. Whoof.
You can see the original body color in the engine bay -- a hideous baby/french blue. The p/o had it painted a Ford gray/gold/green (which there's still a little of on the nose, and you can see the hood and trunk against the far wall).
She was actually in pretty good shape when she went in -- a couple of small dings, and some blistering in the rockers, which was about it.
Not sure what color I'm going for, but (a) it won't be blue, got 3 blue cars already, (b) it won't be red, and (c) it will be a light color, not very metallic/pearlescent, if at all.
That, or I'll have the whole damned thing chromed.
