The final product is SEXY...yeah it's nice to live near Bruning! :cheers:

Been a long time since an update.
There were some things that I wanted changed on the rear bumper and tail panel, after staring at it for a long time I made up my mind and went ahead and changed it. Also the tail panel was a repo part and the stamping just wasn't good around the tail lights and other areas. I had the original from when they cut it out, so Tim decided he wanted to put that one on there.
It looks alot better. I machined a die and stamped the shape I need for the fuel door, it makes it look like it was meant to be there.

Here are some teaser pics. from iphone. Real pics will come as soon as i get them off the camera.

Sweet, it's back at BAD!! Looks good...what's next!! :unibrow:

lots of things on the wish list just not sure what will get done.
I'm still operating on my paycut at work, if I could get that back it would help speed things up. Plan is to finish stuff working from the rear to the front of the car.

Well, do what you can! And I think it's a great idea to finish something and move onto another part of the car...jumping around doesn't really get you to the finish line!

Fuel Filler is looking good, I like it.

I can't see what changes to the bumpers and tail pan were enhance from the previous mods. Can you elaborate?

Thanks, keep the pics coming.

The ends of the bumpers were changed to be a bit more flat. Hard to explain the change without seeing it in person. It was an improvement.
The tail panel chage was the addition of the fuel door, but also changeing the tail panel out for an original GM one, the stamping is much better especially around the tail lights. Also the repo driver side rear quarter were it meets the tail panel had to be reshaped cause it didn't match the passenger side.

Excellent work going on here!!:thumbsup:

She's looking good.
Keep up the great work and keep us posted.:thumbsup:

Here are some better pictures to see the changes.
Bumper lines were sharpened a bit and the corner of the rear quarter had to be reshaped to match the passenger side rear quarter.
