driver quarter, welds all ground.

the rear body panel on both sides needed small pieces fabricated where the quarter was missing a tab to connect to the rear body panel.

fabricated piece all welded.

layout for vinyl roof molding. only there won't be a vinyl roof, it will be painted pewter!

pass vinyl top molding good to go.

drivers side vinyl roof molding all good too.

anyone know where i can get this clip? its for the side window trim and R/T specialties does not have them.

there are 8 if i am not mistaken and they hold this molding.

I will try and update a picture of whats been going on. not sure i am in love with this new format here. oh well. here goes. just got all my rear suspension parts. new hemi leaf springs, new u bolts, new shackles, rear shocks. everything has been painted and is ready to go.

just finished restoring my taillight housings, lens, and added the new gaskets.

No new pictures to post. I did get all my pieces for the disc brake conversion. rotors, calipers, bearings, etc, and all four shocks. i also ordered the passenger side door skin.

I finally got some motivation to get out in the garage. I got the rear body panel epoxy primed as well as the trunk jam and rear window shelf panel.

another shot. i plan to paint where the rear bumper brackets mount to the rear body panel before i put the car back on the rotisserie.

body has been completely epoxy primed with PPG DP90LF, inside floors have been coated with a spray able truck bed liner and the inside of the quarters have been texture coated with a spray able coating to match the OEM.

Trans was sent out and completely rebuilt as well as the hurst shifter. trans will be painted when it installed.

Keep up the good work. It is a long haul for most people but you will get there if you keep doing alittle along. I'm in the middle of a 71 Duster 340 resto myself. I am so slow I don't even post it on here but I keep getting alittle done at a time and it is adding up. Love your car!

Thanks fc7freak! it'll get there.
