Some quick history on this car/ project. Its a 4dr- 2dr rebody. The sheet metal / parts came from all over the usa. All the parts were bought from e-bay, moparts , craigslist and this website. It's a true "hodge-podge" of sheet metal. Alot of time was spent on repairing , welding ,grinding and bumping out dents. ....Here's some more photo's.

Damn nice job!!!
 
One thing I did that worked out great was, I built a neg pressure booth out of 2x2's , 6mill poly and a home furnace fan. I could sandblast or paint for hours at a time , with no dust or heavy fumes . I did all the blasting and priming this past winter. Heat from running the air compresser , would warm the garage nice. The real trick was keeping the temps even, with all the neg air pressure.

Last fall I sandblasted, epoxy primed and painted two sets of front and rear door panel top's and installed some super stock door panels from legendary.One of the sets of door tops I custom made. The hardest part was finding some lock furrels and knobs , that i was happy with. Joe suchey had some that i liked.
