First step is bag, document and take plenty of pics during dissassembly. Just finishing up a 68 500 vert. Tim
Thanks Tim and Vern. We are Taking lots of digital, 35mm and video for documentation. Also Bagging and tagging so to say. I know this is a slow process and I am in no hurry. Just want to get it right. Chuck
Another great way to get it right the first time is to visit a SAAC convention, or an MCA grand national or national show. Sit and gab with a co-operative concours owner. Take notes and photos to get all the detail right.
