Holy Smokes!! This is quite an active forum.
Thanks for the warm welcome.

Well, I have a few pics, but she is far from being a beauty queen. I've had it since I was 18. It was the first of four. It has spent many a year on the fence row. My wife sold her BelAir to fund a business venture in 1999. A fewyears ago we started looking for another. It seemed that $8-10K would buy a car in good enough shape to restore, so I drug this gal back out of the brush and went to work. It's low budget and no frills, but does include some goodies under the hood.

Here are the pics I promised...

Maybe I'll write a coffee table book about the car. An uncle of mine assembled it out of junkyard parts back in the late 70s.

I just finished up the exhaust today and welded a body support bracket to the frame that has been broken since before I acquired the car. I also tac welded the right front inner fender to the pinch weld to keep it from rattling in unison with the camshaft. :D
 
Sweet, another 210. Glad you found this site. Mine is being restored into a driver as well. Enjoy the site.
Josh
