Hello everybody.  Here is another picture of the front of the engine. Some of these pictures don't show that we did connect the vacuum line on the distributor, but we did later. Thanks, ted http://s1055.photobucket.com/user/jented1/library/?sort=3&page=1   my photo bucket link for Ted and Ken’s pictures on Hannah’s car restoration and Ken’s shop and projects.

Hello everybody.  Someone ask how much all the interior on the Rambler cost that Wayne did.  I think it was somewhere between 1500.oo to 2000.oo for everything.  I think Wayne did a great job for a great price.  He is now redoing the dinette cushions in our travel trailer for us. Thanks, ted   http://s1055.photobucket.com/user/jented1/library/?sort=3&page=1   my photo bucket link for Ted and Ken’s pictures on Hannah’s car restoration and Ken’s shop and projects.

Hello everybody.  I am sorry I haven't posted in a long time.  I am uploading some of the pics of the finished car.  I will be uploading more in the future that my son-n-law Peter sent me.  He has polished the top of the alum. radiator and installed a chrome fan shroud that looks great.  We didn't have time to make a shroud before they picked up the car.  Here is a picture of my granddaughter, Hannah.  Thanks, ted  SmileApprove

Here is a picture of Ken and I with the finished car.  That's if a car is ever finished.  Peter is updating a few things himself. It just keeps getting better and better.  Thanks, ted

Peter has already replaced the black cover for the fan and radiator.  He polished the top of the alum. radiator and had a custom chrome shroud made for it.  I will update the picture when I receive one.  Thanks, ted

Hello everybody.  Peter also rubbed out the paint and it looks great.  He has had numerous compliments.  The car has even prompted interest in the old Ramblers and other AMC'S for restoration, as something different than the big 3 car manufactures.  Thanks, ted   LOLTongueBig smileLOL
