We’ve said it before — we love a good car restoration story. And this one is about grit. No, not sandpaper. You know that buzzword going around — Grit is the “perseverance and passion for long-term goals”. And this couple has it. They built on their car knowledge (He says, “Early in our relationship she helped me pull a transmission in an old Scout. That’s what hooked me!”) and completely restored a 1972 Dodge Swinger. They offer great advice for DIY restorers, like “Don’t start a paint job unless you have enough time to finish it in the same day”. Now learning that lesson would test all kinds of grit. Great job Shane and Kelly! There is only one place that can take care of that labor of love! www.hdindoorstorage.com

I love a good Car Restoration story!
This story has it all — young love, rust, redemption. And a real headliner, a 1969 Dodge Dart GTS. I know where I would keep it. www.hdindoorstorage.com
