bub-BA It Is




Having a few hours in a row to work on an old car is a wonderful thing. Managed to get the front fenders, cowl, and grille all off. Off to the body shop tomorrow night, then off for a nice bath in acid. The metal all looks decent--no hidden cancerous surprises.
The only surprise was a production line wax crayon marking under the driver's side fender that looks like "bub." The Bonneville is named, of course, 'Big Aqua Bonney.' Could never quite get a name down for the White GP--but think I have one now: "bub-BA".
Next up: Getting the dash out, picking up the painted 5-lug rims to get tires mounted, then on to the front suspension and brakes.
