1970 GTO the next project

There are some vile disgusting creatures in the "Automotive" world .... I've had the displeasure of tripping over a few here in southern California. Hopefully he uses what you've found to crucify the bastards.

Those type of people need to be fitted for a special set of those concrete Nike's

I've been picking away at the GTO. I finished up the pass wheel wells both installed with no problem with the quarter on. Mocked up the body onto the new un bent frame and found the floor brace installed by the other shop was located wrong. I installed a new one and got everything lined back up. I sand blasted the floor this weekend and I must say they are in great shape. While working in the trunk area I found the rear tail panel was sectioned 3 times. I have located an original to replace damaged. It will be a really solid car once I'm done. Still have the challenge of replacing the tulip panel under panel I call it the package tray area. The last body shop put a new panel over the old rusty package tray panel. I was also informed the radius of the aftermarket quarter is not correct for the trim. This will have to be resolved also. That is why you need to mock everything up.

Jason, I know I've probably asked you before, but where are you located in relation to central NJ. I'm thinking it's time to get Gramma's car repainted after 25 years and your work is outstanding. :-)

I’m just outside of Albany and Jeff is next in line and after jeff I have a list that is only getting longer. I do this for fun and sometimes I ask myself what’s wrong with me! Well Mother Nature put a twist in my planned week to paint the GTO. I get this week off from work and had all intentions to paint the GTO but I can’t do it when the outside temp is single digits. I got the bottom of the hood and trunk lid painted today. It took 5 hours to get the shop to 75 just to paint these two things. This color is awesome. Crazy expensive but well worth it. This GTO is going to be the only one of its kind that’s for sure!
