It was restored once before by me. Had a 340. Was a 318 car before. 2 tag A/T GC car. The body work had some hack work done and wasn't really very good.

This pic of it in the early ninties.

Chasing bodylines seems like eternity. Its getting close now. Just a few small areas that aren't perfect.

Some would think this it acceptable. I want flawless!!

I should be getting it painted by the first week of November.

Here it is getting it's final blocking. The yellow is primer. Worked really well over the grey 1st block to find any hidden high/low's.

Prunedale Auto Body near Salinas is doing the work. His crew does exceptionally great work.

I would highly recommend them to anyone if they are in the market for getting their car painted.
