Thanks, actually I had poor insight, I gave it away in the early 80's, was fortuate to get it back in 2007 from the same gentleman that I gave it to.

The bodyshop is called Prairiefire in Consort Alberta.

Every single piece you had done looks incredible. Mut be nice to pay and have it all done for you! I spent 3.5 years of weekends and holidays to do the same thing - myself - Acck!

Also loved what you said about your exploits at 16 coming back to haunt you - they sure did - but in a good way!

Keep em coming!

Prepping for final paint, hopefully the next update will be all gold and starting the assembly. Looking forward to cleaning the basement out. Some of the parts are starting to be furniture.

No we did do the floors, it would of been easier to use the one piece floor plan, but I did not want to replace the hump as it has factory numbers stamped in it, plus it was in good shape. The drivers side was rusted right through. The rear needed replacing and the passenger side was not to bad.

That old wreck isn't worth putting anything into it Stan. Karbashers is having a scrap drive next week, you should think about pulling the Hemi out and donating the body?

I thought Hemi cars were worth money? That and the body's not that bad just one small hole in the floor and the front of the quarters and that's just because the factory sunroof drain tubes leaked. But if you don't think its worth much maybe I should just sell it off.
