    Not much progress...just the kind of stuff where you work all weekend, but it is hard to tell just what exactly you got done..

    Stuff like a new trunk opening and rain gutters. The old trunk opening was just too damn small no matter what I did, so it had to go. And, all the crap that makes up the panel that holds the latch.

    Got all the garnish mouldings done.

    And the louver guy finished the hood. (If you ever need louvers, call McNeils Body Shop. Monroe NC. Ask for Don. A buck a louver.)

    I think I already showed the quick change pic, but here it is again, just in case.

    And, this is her tonight. About 85% mocked up. A few more months and she will come all back apart for shiny paint.

    See ya, -Abone.

    P.S. Anybody got a decent front windshield frame, maybe just an OK bottom of one??

    Thanks, -Abone.

    Ruler!!!! Great progress and definitely nice work. I am going to be working on my 32's back trunk area too and I am sure I'm going to be tackling things much like you did....only I will do them will far less precision.

    Good Work bud!

    Looks great ABone. Louvers always add such an aggressive touch. What are you running under those louvers?

    Who's decklid? Henry's or Steve's? If it is Steve's, that would be the source of your alignment woes.

    Isn't that the truth. I'm in awe at what you eventually end up with as opposed to what you started with. Just amazing!

    Kinda hard to see, but the spreader bar curves to match the body.
