December, 2017 Update
Right now everything is out of the car. 3 months ago Michael LeVeque built and installed a roll cage and did some small body work closing in some of the front area above the bumper that I cut out when I built it. Your description of the car is good. I am also going to use Bob Coffin's 4 link rear suspension. Archibald Evans front air dam and radiator.
I have been working on the front and rear suspension, sandblasting and painting parts before re-assembly. I still have to remove the sub-frame for cleaning and painting.
