Christmas

Christmas activities have had priority, so the only work accomplished on the '56 was small parts cleaning, sketching some console designs, and finishing bolting the body to the frame. After a few minor tweaks to the front floor sheet metal, everything went surprisingly well.

Despite the flexible condition of the body from all the rust, while repairing and replacing panels, I managed to get everything aligned so that the thickest shim required was about 3/8". I'll take that and keep my fingers crossed that it didn't create any yet unseen problems.

Merry Christmas, and enjoy another Roy Orbison favorite.
