Thanks ... doing my best to get this ol girl on the road!



The carnage from today ... I forget how dirty the process of removing a quarter panel was until today. lol

I bonded the outer wheel house in and realized I didn't have enough product to get the inner attached, so I figured I might as well get the other side going, supposed to go faster on the second one, right?



How come GM didn't galvanize more parts on the car???



Little bit of rust ... just like other side, easy peasy!

Still have to finish the mini tubs too!

That's a little better!

I still have to get the roof section, rocker panel, and drip rail off, that's maybe tomorrow's goal. Then start lining up the POS AMD quarter to the GM door jamb, it'll come off after the AMD is grafted in, and then get the mini tub finished before final placement of quarter.

Thanks for looking ...

Thanks ... I haven't ordered my inner wheel wells yet. I did see the 67 Camaro that was used for the prototype, and Roger described them pretty good. Hopefully they will be available soon!

Cheers Michael...lookin good. Lemme know if you need a weekend hand, I'm bored lol

Mike, thanks! Yeah, I'm gonna get the outside straight and sanded w 400 grit and call it good. The wrap will show any low or high spots so you do have to do some bodywork, but nothing compared to guys prepping for a black paint job!

You can come on down anytime you want I'll find something for you to do

Yes, after you work for it, lol!


Wow, second side is going a lot faster ... lol! Mini-tub closeouts are done and test fit the inner, cut the flange and re-bent the flange for a closer fit to the outer. Of course after you cut you have to weld em closed ... ready for some epoxy primer, maybe tomorrow I'll spray these items and the rear end.















That's where I'm at right now, I have to research strategic management initiatives and get writing on my capstone module for the week ... thanks for looking!

Looking good Chief! You know the bond between those wheel tub halves is strong enough.
