Jet Convertible
-
The tear down on the Jet Convertible is almost done. I want to thank many of you on here for helping with information and parts to begin to put it back together. It does have several unique things about its construction, as this thing was not just a chop job, but an engineered convertible. I have the parts car which will donate its floor and frame to the project also thanks to contacts made here on the forum. Again thanks to those who helped, and Merry Christmas.
I have attached a picture for those of you who were wondering if it was really as bad as it looked.

Hey Ed, How much Jet did you actually buy? Looks like a virtual Jet.

Ed, when you get far enough along to sticking some 18 ga metal back together take a look at Foosor 108B stuff really works wonders with "patch panels" We have some test panels "out in the weather" for four years at school and it is still stuck solid. I like it as low voltage MIG will warp if you are like me - kind of shaky with the gun. Oh well, merry christmas

Hi Frank,
Merry Christmas! Looks like you've got your hands full, for quite a while. I do not envy you, at least on this project. Keep that digital camera handy, and keep us updated on the progress, ok?
You might want to start a web page on it, and document the work - from start to finish... -
darned Ed, I just found an Italia I was going to tell you about, it's a bit of a project, but it seems you got your hands full....
all I can say is WOW, it was worse than I thought. At least you'll do the car justice.
