So the car was finally a roller .
At this point I was going to just throw the front sheet metal back on, install the engine and transmission, and try to get the car running.
But the more I looked at the car I was unhappy that everything underneath and inside would look fresh, and the outside would have subpar paint and body panels far from being straight.
The quarters had some pretty good waves and dents, as wel las the doors.
The paint on the left front fender was cracking from what appeared to be a poor repair at some point.
The biggest issue was the paint on the rear quaters and roof was reasonably shiny and looked fresh while the rest of the body panels were dull and had much more orange peel.
I had mentioned early on about the hidden issues and they were about to reveal their ugly heads.
So down the rabbit hole we go.....................
I made the decision now was the time to paint it the way I wanted as it was already half way unassembled anyway.
So tear down number 2 began.
Here I am welding in fender trim holes while making new ones for the BB fender call outs.
Then time to make new holes in the hood for the SS louvers as well as add the support brackets underneath.
