NICE !!! Very Nice !!! I think my daughter would be jealous if she saw these pics.
She has one similar in her garage. but they have a new baby in the house... so she hasn't been able to do any work on it.
So do understand... You had the new panels professionally installed ? Cause the car is lookin awesum.

PROUD ??? Proud doesn't even begin to start to describe how I feel.
My lil girl owns a 67 fastback and she sold her Ford Ranger and now her daily driver is a 74 Pinto (back bumper and gas tank has had the necessary modifications)
and before they had thier lil baby boy. Her and her husband use to compete against each other in Ice Racing and summer road endurance rally driving.

I'm CRAZY PROUD of her, AND her brother.

It's not always a good thing when the hole family is car & truck guys and girls... Their poor mother gets left out of the conversations.
Speaking of being left out of the conversation... Sorry Clint.. Didn't mean to high jack your thread.
Your project is looking real good man. Do you have any other car/ truck guys in your family?

Understandable... You want to make sure those are installed straight and true... Or nothing else is gonna go on it properly Mad

Yea, it will be a new car but all the new metal is thicker than oringinal so it will be stiffer.
