    I think in the 3rd pic your using my patented "use belly as 3rd hand" stance haha

    Looks as though you guys are doing great. How much did you take off front/back?

    This thing is lookin sick! We've shaved the doors, mouldings, wipers, taillights, hood and deck lid emblems, and drip rails replaced with round rod. We also welded the headlight rings to the fenders as well as a bunch of patch panels. The b-pillars have been chopped at the base of the "windows", the doors have been capped, along with the chop, the rear window was replaced with a business coupe rear window. I'm sure more has been done but I can't remember.

    Here it is now in primer and green guide coat. 12v conversion and rewire almost done. Good enough to make it around the block.
