I think I've finally turned the corner on the '59. Instead of a basket case requiring more baskets every time I work on it, I'm finally starting to get parts out of the baskets and put them back on! Getting some color on has done wonders for my motivation. Still a long way to go, but I think the patient is going to live. I've added some recent pics of the project here:

Thanks for the encouragement. I'll need it. I'm coming to the stage where I have to dig in my pocket for new rubber parts and other pieces so I can put it all back together.
