Be sure to keep a journal. Otherwise you won't remember which year was the hurricane, the earthquake or the pesky alien abduction that slowed your project down.

My 67 A/C car looks the same. I've often thought that it would have been a bit easier to get the battery out if the removable panel was bolted on from the tire side, for better access to the bolts.

What do for use for a cleaner/shiner? Max Green sprayed on first? Then some sort of 303-like product for the shine? I'm planning on cleaning up my engine bay soon to a Leif-like degree.
