Fresh Pearl White Paint!

   With the body freshly painted Pearl White and undercoated, some initial assembly was done, and the body mounted on the chassis.   Brakes, transaxle, and engine have been installed before remounting the body.  This eases assembly and really adds a factory look.

A fresh 1600 dual port motor with alternator was installed on a 1967 Transaxle, and retrofits perfectly! This completes the majority of the 12 volt conversion, and adds many modern updates to this '63.   A dual circuit master cylinder has also been installed, which adds safety and a bit more response to the braking system.
