22 years ago the owner started a bodywork project on the car, then he got married... | Battery Box in rebuild, found all new sheet metal and wood. | ||||||
The battery box area has been chopped up and reduced in size so there is more leg room. It looks reversible. | After Painting, it was reversible - but not inexpensive... | ||||||
The engine looks pretty clean, he had it out and the head off before the body work started | New filler, jumbo sized. | ||||||
The front clip has been replaced - the clip looks good but the splice job is 4th rate. | The first day of reassembly | ||||||
The owner reworked the driver side splice - better than the RH but still needs to be reworked. | Greg, the guy who brought the body and frame back from the edge.. | ||||||
The car was originally white. | 4 days later, the happy crew... | ||||||
The crash that resulted in the clip replacement mangled the frame uprights - they will need to be reconstructed. | Now with eyes, bumpers and a motor. |
