I was hoping my next update would have been of a freshly painted shell. Yet here we are a month later after dropping off the shell and its not done yet. I suppose I need to be more patient… either way I do have some small updates… not many photos of the odds and ends,Continue reading “Things are moving slowly…”

Gonna do this post a little differently… well no one will know it but I figure if I update this little by little I will be able to put down what I have done. This might make the post longer cause it will be done over a few days. Guess we will find out byContinue reading “Odds and ends while I wait…”

No I am not finished with the car… god I wish I was. But I am finished with my share of the body work and boy does it feel good. Been a little while since my last update, I had a punch list… its not completely checked off but thats ok… more on that later..Continue reading “I didn’t think this day would come…”

Well my list got shorter and longer at the same time, not that much longer though. Over the past few days I have been fighting with the half boot, floor, valance, and rear subframe mounts. They all tie in together so you have to play with a lot to make things line up. So whereContinue reading “Boot done”

While I had hoped to start cutting the boot off the car I got hung up on making the front fit better… guess you could say I wasn’t too happy with the fitment. I also started a punch list for the body work so I hopefully don’t miss anything. I am happy to say theContinue reading “Buttoning up some odds and ends”

Over the last week I have worked on getting the front end fitted, back when I decided to go fiberglass I had two thoughts about it one it can’t rust and two I don’t have to weld anything… Now that I have a decent grasp on welding I kind of wish I just went withContinue reading “Starting to look like a car again”

Because I am waiting on some panels for the rear I figured I would knock out the scuttle. If you search back several posts to where I cut the scuttle off you might get an idea of why I pushed this off for so long…. Either way I had to take the dive at someContinue reading “Scuttle on”

Yep you read that correctly… I finished the RH side of the car today… This is gonna be somewhat long so I am going to get straight into it. So the last update I had finished the RH door step/post and had the door on looking pretty good. Next task was to get the innerContinue reading “Right side done…”

I seem to go in bursts with this stuff. I have a really good couple of days then I just don’t want to look at it. Then when I want to work on it I want to do other things… like go mountain biking… which I have done the past two days… and tried workingContinue reading “The pile of panels is getting smaller”

Feel like I was on a roll today, I decided it was time to do the RH door post and step. I figure I can follow the same path as the LH side as it seemed to work out ok. But before I did that I couldn’t help but grind on the B and CContinue reading “Peeling back the layers….Literally”
