Teardown is finally complete on the car. It’s headed to the body shop to begin repairing all the body panels, prep, and paint. The drip rails will be shaved and the seam between the rear quarters and the filler panel will be welded for a nice clean look.
Im using the factory subframe. I sent it off to Precision Powdercoat in Houston and they gave it a nice satin black finish. I highly recommend these guys for powdercoat work.

Before:


After:


My son and I built a body cart, and it was a nice father/son project. Little over $100 invested and it works like a charm.





Here are some teardown pics:
