Well, it's been 13 months since I brought the Spirit home. I was waiting for photos from the original owner to start my thread. So, let's play a version of Where's Waldo. The Spirit is visible, but can you find the 1969 AMX, the 1969 Javelin shell or the 1967 Ambassador?

Close to getting loaded.

Loaded and ready for it's first ride in 23 years.


Later!
Mr. Ed

There is a bit of blue from the passenger rear fender extension, and antenna, in front of the Spirit. My guess is that would be the AMX since it's so short, and two get two cars deep in that garage they'd both have to be short.

I'm guessing the Javelin is on the left under the boxes and bicycles.

OK. So I hit the wrong number but have corrected it.

Yea, the Ambassador is on the right under all of that stuff. The blue in front of the Spirit is the Javelin shell and the AMX is out of sight to the left of the Javelin in the back corner. No, it isn't my garage.

This is the Spirit all tucked away in my garage.

This is the interior.

The good side.

The front damage.

Removal of damage begun.

The damaged radiator.

More tomorrow.

Later!

Mr. Ed...I'm looking forward to seeing progress on your Spirit.  In the meantime, can you do me a favor? I'd like to know 2 measurements on the bucket seats: what is width across the seat cushion at it's widest, and what is depth of seat cushion from front edge to where it meets the seat back?  Thanks so much!
