Nice job straightening out those panels. Looking forward to seeing some progress shots when the 1/4 panels go on.

Excellent. Best choice of wheel too.

Thanks guys, I'll be diggin into the quarters next month and will take lots of pics during that install which will include quarters, outter wheel houses, trunk floor, and drop offs.

The quarters are the only rust issues on the car and they have both been replaced at some point in the cars rough life, makes me wonder if the car still had its original quarters would it have rusted at all.

The outter wheel houses need replaced due to being hacked at the quarter lip for fat tires and the trunk floor needs replaced because someone chopped it up to get to the top shock bolts.

I was wondering how that deal turned out. I'm glad you got that one. Looked like a pretty good car from the pics.
Mine is an original F8 post also. I've got the new 1/4s in the garage waiting for their turn.
looking forward to more pics.

look'n good

Lookin good!!! What color are you going to paint it?

It will be black with black hood stripes.

new lowered stance after indytex and I installed the new leaf springs and flipped the front hangers, and I pulled the front bars down accordingly. This is exactly the look I was after.

Looks great!

Any new pics of the car? it looks good in primer

I'm looing at your last pic in reference to the stance of the car, how much do you think your car was lowered by flipping the spring hangers?

I'm working on a 68 and when I get there thats the stance I'll be after.

Yes: Not many cars look right in primer but 68-69 Road Runners do.
