RGX IV November 27, 2021
The day finally came to begin the restoration of RGX IV. Long-time friends, Cody & Casey Akin, came down from Grand Prairie to help me get started. In return for their help, I gave them the other car.
After loading their car, they took the engine and transmission out of RGX IV. They'll restore it in their shop in Grand Prairie and at some point next year, we'll put her back together. In the meantime, I'm gonna start the restoration of the car just as soon as time allows with the intention of being mostly done by the end of spring.

That evening, Cody sent me these 2 photos after they unloaded in Grand Prairie.
