Dan's been plugging away at my heap the last couple weeks. He is really an artist with metal. Now if I only had the "long bread" so I could just cut all his talent and creativity loose I can only imagine what he'd come up with...
He's made good progress on the firewall and repaired my Flintstone toe-board as you can see in the pics. I don't have the pics but the floorpans and trunkpan are also fitted. Can't wait to see the new sheetmetal going on. Bye bye rust On to the pics...

Hey John. Your Nova is in great hands with Dan. Its nice knowing you will get top notch work and not have to worry if this or that was fixed properly etc.
I just wish I had the $$ to let Dan's creativity loose!

Dan's still plugging away at it. Here are a few recent updates. The quarter removal has started. The trunk pan has been fit and this pic also shows all the bracing that Dan did to ensure things don't move around.
It's gonna be a huge relief to have this part of the rebuild done and done right by a pro. I've learned a lot just talking to Dan and examining the pictures to see how he approached different things. Maybe in my next life I'll tackle more of this part myself

Looks like it is heading back in the right direction. Best and worse thing you can ever do is blast a car. It never fails that they are never as good and soild as you would have hoped. Since this car is obviously a keeper, it is worth the time and expense to get that part right. You will never have to revist it again.
