Got a little more work done over the weekend... Inner fenderwells in. Also made inner wells in the back side to protect the tops of the fenders from stuff flying up. Yes.. Epic fail on cleaning the finger prints off... There is a shroud that will be painted body color that covers the radiator and condenser. Need to wrap up the AC lines and make sure all is good before I install it.

Thought I'd give my tri-monthly update... I know I lag something fierce in this department..

Still making good strides. All of the sheet metal is on and final gapped. Extremely happy with the body and paint. Jim absolutely nailed it!!! Really like the pic of the motor reflection on the backside of hood.

Working on wrapping up the wiring on the inside. Only thing left is Power windows, locks, AC and stereo stuff. Then bumpers, grill etc...

Plans are off to interior next month.

I'll try to get better on updates.. Been 20 years in the making.. Can't believe I can finally see the light.. Name:  20231008_154510.jpg

Love that car!

The BBC with the understated valve covers for example, the perfect paint and body, and the Gilmer drive belts.
