I was not happy with the way the end caps or taillight panel fit from the original Eleanor kit so I ordered new end caps and taillight panel from Mustangs to Fear. The fit was good except now the deck lid did not line up.

We cut the end of the deck lid off and lowered it

Now you are caught up how the car looks now after being in storage for a couple of years.

The first thing we did was order a lot of parts.

We had installed subframe connectors along time ago and since we were going with Total Control rear suspension we decided to cut them off.

Brian welded in the TCP subframe connectors

When we did the rust repair years ago the A pillar was not available. There were a few pits in the pillar so Brian decided to replace both of them. We did not feel right about giving it to the customer this way so we are fixing it at our expense.

The welds still need to be ground

Looks great Rusty. Nice of you guys to fix the A-pillars for the owner at your cost. Keep up the good work. I'll be keeping an eye on this one.
