I have to agree with that one! It could be very worse.

I love them..... have owned many of them..... but these weren't exactly the standard of fit and finish and rust protection. I can remember working for DAYS trying to get the doors on my '64 Polara 500 to shut without sounding like the door was going to fall off.... LOL


Nice project by the way!

We reached out to US car tool for some of their unibody braces, the inner fender braces being one of them. They look sweet, too bad no one will ever see them after the car is completed.

This car, along with all of our other current builds, all the metal and paint work is being completed at our new body shop! We just opened after the SEMA show and employ 6 men over there, at our new 9,000sq ft facility, on top of our 6,000sq ft performance and restoration buisness.

Here is the engine compartment after doing away with some useless holes and marks so we can get the smooth look throughout the firewall and inner fenders.
