So you’ve been able to see alot of the parts as they were and we’re getting ready to start the fab work on the new console and do fab work on the dash so that it all flows together.IMG_0676IMG_0677IMG_0735IMG_0734IMG_0661

 

Justin & Nancy own this great ride and we were going over things with them.  Thought you would like to see the faces behind this nice ride.IMG_0675

 

 

We are done here for now, Let’s see what’s going on with the body work.IMG_0532IMG_0533IMG_0804

 

We are starting to aline the doors.IMG_0805IMG_0736IMG_0806IMG_0745

 

 

 

 

 

 

Lets look it over and decide what we need to do with the inside of the doors to make sure the windows will work.

Enjoy….IMG_0853IMG_0855IMG_0865

Looking good.  It looks like every thing is coming together here.

So let’s remove the dash and console and do a little body work on them and get them in some primer.IMG_1706IMG_1707IMG_1708IMG_1709

 

Next will be watching the third brake light being fabbed into the back of the car.

 

So lets watch the back of the car change by putting in a

We are going to start with the hood.  It will go from stock to custom.  Turns out great.
