Here's one tip, if you can get your hands on a parts car second gen., do it. You can cut out the sections of damaged window channel and have them welded in from the parts car without fabbing up the contours (bends) from scratch.

Thanks for the tips Paul. There is a second gen near by that may have the parts I need for the windows. But the rest of the car is trash. It was an old drag car and has been beaten beyond help. The roof structure is about the only semi straight part left. I'll have to see if the channels are ok and what he wants for the shell. The guy thinks everything on his property is worth gold for some reason. Hes got over 20 cars there and the county has been after him to get them out. His forced sale is not going so well because of his prices.
I'll get some pics up in the next week or so of my car. It is nothing special to look at right now. But it is a really good base for this build.

I think you might be a little biased.

I landed on the silver/grey/red stripe with black wheels. The hood is a point of discussion with the wife (it's going to be flat, SSSHHHHH ) she wants the cowl hood.

Thanks for all the great input guys! Time to start building.
