      I know you had the body on a rotissierre. Have you finished out the underside yet? if so did you use bed liner or primer/paint? I have my 67 on the rotissiere now and plan to shot it with a couple coats of satin black epoxy before I remove it from the rotissiere for body work. I was also curious what you thought about the TCP rear coilover set up as compared to others you have installed. I know you used a different one in your coupe.

      We have not finished the underside. We had to take it off the rotisserie to line up all the sheetmetal. We will be putting it on a body cart to finish the bodywork than back on the rotisserie to finish the underside. I believe this is what we are doing unless the owner wants something different. Sand than using SPI products epoxy prime black and than bedliner next red oxide epoxy primer to give it a factory look. I like the TCP rear coilover but if you are looking for a bolt in than use Rod & Custom. With the TCP you have to weld the rear crossmember (which I did when we installed the Rod & Custom in my coupe) and brackets on the rear end housing unless you are using a Fab 9 like we did that came with brackets.

      The rear valance had a tack weld and also bolts.



      Instead of studs on the valance Dynacorn used 2 different size bolts and washers from inside the trunk and attached to clips on the valance



      We wanted to take off the rear valance to see what was behind it and just as I thought bare metal and surface rust

      Great build, you guys do incredible work. Just wondering what is involved in getting a VIN and title for a build like this, if you don't have a donor vehicle.

      Rusty,

      Is that roll bar from Mustangs to fear ? if so it looks like you welded it in as opposed to being able to unbolt it and remove it is that what you did?

      How was fitment and are you happy with it?
