The body was so messed up on this car that we considered doing an entire new aftermarket body. In the end it turned out more cost conscious to replace what was needed and salvage what we could. It's really surprising what was under the paint and what appeared to be a fairly straight body, the previous "Bondo Sculptor" did a great job hiding it all. Here's a list of the new sheetmetal we put on:
  • Both rear 1/4s
  • Both rockers
  • Both doors
  • Both fenders
  • Top of the dash
  • Firewall
  • Complete floor
  • Complete deep rear wheel tubs
In the process this car is also receiving a few body upgrades:
  • Tucked rear bumper
  • Shaved drip rails
  • Bullet mirrors
  • Razor hood
  • Custom front valance
  • Custom sheetmetal dash
  • ExtReme frame connectors
  • Something a little different for the rear seat area
  • Bolt-in custom roll cage
Here are a few pics to get started with...
