Nice to see another one getting saved.
Looks like you have done this before.

Yes, half a dozen first gens and a 75. This is my first early 2nd gen.

I fixed the passenger's side lower quarter:

While working on the trunk I found out that I needed to replace 1 of the trunk to tail pan braces but I guess they do not make these in reproduction for a 1970-1973. So I bought one for a 67-68 and modified it..

I am apprehensive about doing the roof but ready to give it a go..

Nice to see another second gen in my area! Your build is very similar to mine. I have a 73 Type LT. It is in paint at the moment. I am also from Mobile, AL.

Very cool. I lived in Grand Bay a few years ago...Who is doing your paint?
