so new door, was way better than the old ine with rust in channel, inside and thru- some po used a bunch of bondo to cover up - now new door primed and in the car- rear bumper and a front bumper with super nice top sourced last weekend locally,
trying to decide about using early bumper no guards etc or this later one that will need some work and has thr holes for thr tits, either paint it or rechrome it we will see- been trying to get some prices on chrome work and repair

#66 is a great example of the brackets/mounts as part of a trans conversion and the correct routing for the factory oil temp wire. Nice picture.

What color?

what color is the car going to be?? original Copper Metallic L99k of course!
it had a respray of something 20 years ago in CA, looks like metallic but almost Sepia brown- Copper looks more orange almost like you took signal orange and added sowm metallic to it. pretty sure his plan is PPG they have a formula for it but he will shoot some sample ans we can match to the front trunk that didnt get repainted back then- talked with Bill Duenster who works for PPG about it and Mike has his number , which will help but Mike has painted for 30+years and restored many cars.
cant wait to see the correct color on it!
