Thanks guys, I'll get a bunch of pics up as soon as I get the camera back. I wanted to download those pics but didnt have an extra flash card to give him. But I didnt want to miss anything like I said. I sure am looking forward to getting it together and meet up with a bunch of you guys and gals with your cars too. If it was up to me We would start some kind of "organized gang" hahaha

What I do need is both rear quater glass for a non spoiler app. with the rubber and trim. I still have the other glass and all............ if anyone needs it. Still have to do the work on the hatch and paint and just paint the hood. then it all can go back together. It looks funny as hell, I told my buddy that I was not going to use the rims and tires for the new car and he primed and painted most of them hahaha what an a$$hole I guess I should be more specific of my intentions in the future in general. But that aside there is a real cool loking car coming out of this. My only regret is not being able to get a set of aero mirrors. I just cant put $700 bucks out for that $hit as much as I'd like to have them. If I ever find a used set at a decent price I can always put them on later though since its not a custom color. I did replace a fine metal flake with a medium though haha.

Well Howdy, I was almost killed in a burning elevator shaft. All healed upnow haha. Sorry I havent been around guys. Progress has been slow but I have enough progress to show now

Here are the front end and doors getting a shot. I never realized how long these fenders are till I had to paint them .....thats a lot of paint.






But looks like a go cart here



the body got a shot too finally





It sure is a great feeling to be done with THIS quarter



Putting some peices together for fun to try toget a picture of what it's going to look like. I have the door tied on with a shirt haha.

Well off to the interior shop. I had an appt. two months in advance and was hurt so I had to take it there even though I wasnt ready for it. I'll just have to take measures not to screw the new stuff up.





The last owner trashed the backers for the door panels putting in surface mount speakers without any shame I guess. So everywhere you see pink is where it had to be filled for the new Infinity 5 1/4" with 2"tweeters. I glassed the outside and thin iced the inside. It turned out really strong and it was easy. I totally reccomend it.


So here is where we are this weekend. The carpet is done. Rear seats and console are done as well. I'm liking this a whole lot.




And finally the front seats...........man this dude has a job ahead huh? I didnt know the seats could look like that hahahaha



Here are a lot more pics and a couple of other project cars my buddies are doing. Enjoy them.
Jeff
