Getting close
I am getting the bodywork real close on my car I had it sitting out in the sun today soaking up the rays trying to help the primer dry a little faster. It just looked so good to me that I had to share.

I would like to let ever one know that there are NO SPRINGS in the car as it sits I just made some mock up fixtures to hold a rear under the car and took the front springs out. I hope when the new frame is done and I C notch the rear frame rails that it can still sit this low and be drivable . Here are two more pictures on Of my NOS tail panel after UPS got a hold of yes this the same on that is now on the car good thing I am patient with a hammer and dolly. The other is right before I started to put the back, back together

UPS did that to the tailpanel ????
what did the morons do, run over it with the "big brown truck" ???
i have gotten to the point with UPS (when i absolutely have no other choice but to ship with them) to insure packages for double or triple what "i" think they are worth........just for their stupidity !

I simply will not deal with UPS. I'd rather wait two weeks and have it shipped buy mail. If someone isn't willing to ship by mail, then I don't deal with them (are you listening JEGS )

Here are some new pics
Over the weekend I put the rest of the front sheet metal back together, and I also put the grill in for the first time since I bought the car 8 years ago It really makes it look complete.
