JohnL71RS’s Project restart…..

Bob,

But I cheated, I did alot of work over 15 years ago. Floor pans, rollcage. Not to mention, I used to weld and fit for a living. That always helps. Now I sit behind a computer all day. Hope to be done by this time next year.

 

I know, got them cheap in 1986. Have been long gone though. They looked like chrome Centerlines back then. Sold them and bought real Centerlines. Still on car today. Thanks for stopping by my thread.

 

I have been following your thread. Get work too. i too am thinkin about taking out the braces in the doors. I need to get a dent out dr door. Thanks for checking out my thread.

 

One thing I got from all of your threads is the pics. So I am trying to take lots of pics. the pics in other threads help me with many ideas i had for my project. Plus the pics help explain many things. More pics in next thread. Thanks for stopping bye.

 

Well yesterday was pretty good. Didn't get as much done as I planned, but things happened. Just sat down to start chiseling off the panel and my spring on my air chisel broke. Had to run to Lowe’s to get new one. Then I had the task of removing the trunk ext and quarter from under the rear panel. What a pain in the butt. Finally got area finished. Notice how many spot welds was on the trunk ext.

 

Next issue was that I noticed the passenger side wheel well is damaged. I know the car had been wrecked on that side, but didn’t know the extent. I will probably have to order a passenger side wheel well and either replace the bad areas or just replace the whole thing. If anyone has one left over, let me know.
