Prob mid summer. I still have to buy all of the fender flares, side exhaust skirts, lower scoops, and hood.Thats another $2,000 or so for that stuff. In addition to fitting all of that stuff.

took advantage of the nice weather today to finish the trunk and do the gaps on teh endcaps. I used icing to go over everything to hide the 40 grit scratches from blocking, i blocked everything with 150 so it ready for primer. I got the drivers side end cap fitting the way I wanted, and still be...

yea you should be able to adjust for that with the tuner.

I second this, being the previous owner of the car I know its limits, I think you should drive it as is for a few months.

took a break from the bodywork yesterday to do some more interior work. Put new foam and upholstery on the old nasty set of buckets. it took all day with he help of a friend, and my hands are killing me. raw seat bottom new foam new cover on, with the center all hog ringed down all done...

spent the another 10 or so hours fiberglassing then blocking the trunk/endcaps, finally got them fitting nice. I had to raise the front of the drivers side up a bit to sit flush. Next on the list of things to do is block the rear quarters and work on the side of the endcap to get that gap nice...

more fiberglassing. I got the back of the trunk/ endcap sitting flush but the bottom edge of the trunk is still unsquare and uneven so I put more fiberglass down to create a new edge. gap looking better bottom of the trunk fiberglass

I spent more time on the trunk today and finally got it fitting as good as its gonna get. I had to install rubber bumpers and take 1/4 inch out of the trunk latch.The drivers endcap is 1/2 inch shorter than the passenger which explains the gap. ill add some fiberglass to get everything to line...

puts the seat button on.

last night me and the mad scientist recovered the rear lower seat. And the next project while im waiting on body parts will be turning these mint, front seats into something more fitting for the car.

it was, deff put my welding skills to the test. However this is the only part of the car with bondo/damage, I can deal with that

thanks guys heres todays update I brought the fenders to the bodyshop yesterday and did a bit of work on them. The drivers fender was fine no bondo or damage, I just needed to weld the emblem holes. The passenger side was a different story however,It weighed about twice as much as the other...

I appreciate the work that went into that car. but In my opinion that car looks really tacky. Nothing flows and it is a poor "Eleanor" example.

I also had my seat frames, and lower valence fog lights come in the mail today.

I got most of the front fender stripped, I'm holding off on the bottom because I have to take the fender down to the bodyshop and weld the emblem holes shut.

all sanded and primed
