using *only* factory /6 parts, even factory /6 sheetmetal for the repairs ...

there's a certain original /6 that had some rather nasty things done to it's body and was deemed to be a parts car at best ...

I saw that car when Thomas had it and I can't belive how good it looks to me. That car was twisted.


it was a lot of work ...

i asked rafael, "are you ready for the next one?" and he said, "give me 4 weeks to recover and i'll do the next one"

I like the welded on pull tab in the front wheel well.

So are you happy with the way the rear shock tower came out or are you still going to replace it? He did a great job but it's still a little wrinkley (i.e. not better than new).

it's going to be replaced ... but we had to push it back out because we needed the measurement point. same thing in the front, even thought i'm planning on replacing some sheetmetal there around the front suspension mount, we had to recreate the original shape and weld up the ripped mount in order to pull the tub correctly ...

as i said, a lot of work ...
