While our blog is not exclusively written for the restoration of the HiPo Convertible like Charles', I thought that I would at least mention it here if anyone is interested.The posts about the HiPo are in with posts about new products, other products that we have, customer cars, etc. The posts about the Conv. are usually fairly brief with a slideshow of pictures. Hopefully, you should continue to see more and more posts about the car now that it will actually be going back together. It will finally start looking like something! http://blog.virginiaclassicmustang.com/ The latest post is the engine dyno. run. Edited by - club 33 on 07/01/2010 12:58:06

Probably you, Charles! ...but, with some of those parts that you still are looking for, I'm not sure. I was hoping to see your restoration completed at VA Beach.

I think Va Beach is a pipe dream, unfortunately. If I make it to Asheville, it will be a miracle. I'm going to put up a good fight to make that one though! If you have a free weekend, make a road trip to Raleigh and check the car out!

There is another photo update today about the HiPo Convertible.http://blog.virginiaclassicmustang.com/ Most of the wiring is installed. Heater box is now actually in the car. The rear part of the car is getting there-rear end assembly, leaf springs, rear valance, although some of this stuff is not shown in this particular post.

Thanks, Charles. It's really great when it finally starts actually looking like something and going back together!! I don't have to tell you that though...

Nice progress. You also sure know your way around your camera in all those tight spaces getting the lighting perfect. Excellent job!
