Have not had much time lately to post progress on the car. Repairs made to the minor rust in the hood seal channel.

Driver's side fender had some issues after the bearings froze from sitting so long, and the wheel came off and split the fender. It had been repaired but needed a little help.

Put down some primer just to keep any rust from starting while we do the body work.

Ok this car has been stalled too long. I have enlisted the services of Kent at Brosseau's Coachworks in Oregon City. I am hoping to get this car ready for a road trip back to Hershey PA in April.

Thank you,
It is in amazing shape and I should have just gave it a tune up and drove it. Oh well, now it will be really nice.

Haven't posted progress on here for a little bit so here is a lot of photos on what's been going on.
I decided to have factory swaybars put in front and rear for the car (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sawzall-smiley.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif) . This is the progress on that along with the worth coating going on after the work was completed to look like it was installed at the factory.
