71 Cyclone restoration

Hello all. My first post here. I just wanted to share my experience with my 1971 Cyclone. It's currently undergoing a frame off restoration. I hope to have the car back late winter or early spring '07. I bought this car from my brother about 5 years ago, and he bought it from the original owner (a California original). It was pretty beat up, but my brother did some body work and cleaned it up, partially rebuilt the engine, but didn't touch the interior.

The downside is that I'm not a mechanically inclined person. The upside is that I discovered 5 years ago that the state prison has an auto restoration facility - and they charge $1.50/hour for the labor. Can't beat that price, so I got on the list and my turn finally came this past August.
