HA. I was waiting for this to surface. I must have donated this car to you over 6 months ago. I could not even go 2 months with out some sort project and ended up buy a '72 driver.
Good Luck!! BTW I had nothing to do with all that special body work (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

Glad to know. I called someone a few interesting names in regards to ruining those rocker panels (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif) I can still use them, along with a set of rusty ones I have, to make one good set. |

I actually got that car from a guy on this board with plans on restoring it but due to being in my senior year of college with no time I decided to let it go. It did look like there was quit a bit of custom bondo going on there. Actually kinda glad it is your problem now (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
I think his name was Richard Linsdal? BTW What was the deal with the home made flares? Didnt they have 1/2" solid rod inside the lip. |

BTW What was the deal with the home made flares? Didnt they have 1/2" solid rod inside the lip. Ha, that was interesting. The original lip was cut completely off, then the fender was bent outwards and the lip was brazed back on with a slight extension....I think...... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) I'm not real sure what the goal was, it MIGHT have yielded an extra 1/4" of tire clearance. In addition there was a couple pounds of brass rod and a couple pounds of bondo added to make it look better. Ont he plus side the original lip could probably be reused on another car if someone had one that only the lip was butcherd on. I guess I'll save them for now. Mike do you want the antenna hole welded up? What about the windshield squirters ? Right now I'm going to get the interior cleaned up and painted and start stripping the hood. That will keep me busy until the other car gets here (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |
