    If you're unemployed then you should have even more time to work on it :drunk: .....Not everything that needs to be done cost money.... :2cents:
                            :iagree:   Nows the time to get a ton of work done.  And it's good therapy. Don't sit around and mope. Stay busy cleaning, grinding, prepping.   PMA =  positive mental attitude.    :bigsmile:

    Very ambitious project.  There is plenty of cleaning, planning and preparation that does not cost much but patience and focus.  Hang in there.

    Thanks guys. For sure i will keep working on the small stuff such as chrome parts and so on. I'm moving the car tomorrow from the garange I'm renting to a much cheaper storage room so i will not really be able to work on it directly.

    We will see how this one goes but I'm sure i will restart working on it very soon.

    In regards to my job, I have offers but I'm still waiting for the proper one:) i need more $$$ for the car

    Wise man... It can be a two side sword, hate to miss a good opportunity but jumping on the first job that comes along means you may miss the biggest opportunity of your life...

                                  :iagree:   However, on the other hand I found out in life it's easier to get a better job when your already working. But that was in the old days.   :walkaway:       :rebel:

    OK, new ob, new beginnings!

    I have been working on cleaning, polishing, etc, some of the parts that i have stored into my DIY shed :) I kept myself busy during the unemployment period with moving from my old apartment, relocating the challenger, relocating all the parts that i have, building the shed for this ones, assembling furniture at my mother in law`s house (where my wife and I moved), etc etc etc

    It will take me about 1-2 months to get back on track and restart the parts hunting.

    Long story short...I`m happy to be back :)

    Hey Alex,

    Are you still looking for the top portion of the quarter panels? I'm replacing both mine so those may be available. The only thing is that the portion that helps form the rear window channel has some rust damage. However, I'm sure they are repairable, if I can get them from the shop that is working on my car. I can inquire if you are interested.

    Thank you
