thanks fellas! im happy the way its turning out. this body style has grown on me alot as ive been working on it, although i really hate some of the original gm engineering in the car. the door hinges with phillips head bolts that are impossible to ever get tight enough, the floorboards dont let you tuck exhaust up with cutting, and the lumpy firewall..... despite all that, i really love this car! its fun building it for mom, although she is my toughest critic, she pushes me to do my best work, and this car is the best ive ever done. too good, now i have to get my impala up too snuff. Im pretty sure she'll be faster than me.
