The Dedication:
This site is in memorial to my late Grandfather and 2nd owner
of this Newport who just passed away on July 31, 2002.
He was 92 years old.
This site is very heavy on photos.

Back To The Beginning

Before Restoration
Photos from the 1980's

My labor of love.
Restoration Photo Diary
I was hit by a virus on January 1st 2002 and Lost ALL my image files.
As an idiot, I didn't have a current backup at that time.
If by chances you down loaded any photos around or before January 1st 2002, then
  I would be very grateful if you could e-mail me those photos.
Thanks.

Weeee!!!! 
For those who visit this site regularly. I must apologies, I've been totally swamped at work and haven't had the time to work on my car.  I haven't even had the time to work on the June photos. Chrys is still hanging upside down as the May-June photos show.  I did finally get a set of rear heater conduits for the rear heater-defoger option. I been going over and over in my mind as to how to repair, cut out, the bad metal. I also now have enough body parts to complete the job. With luck, I just might make some progress this winter.

Chow for now and stay in touch.
