What makes you think he made any progress?
Well, your almost right; it's a learning process. As we all know parts on Cudas are not cheap, so I have inventoried what I have and I'm slowly learning other skilles in repairing old rusted or broken parts.
I was a little dumb in thinking NOS parts are important, they are not. What I have is original to the car and that is what's going back on.
It's wont be 100% perfect looking, but who will know other than me and some judge.
The body is nothing, EZ fix as Hemidog has seen. I am now scraping undercoating off the car, which is a mess. Hemidog will help me get it going faster with the use of his rotisserie.
Drive train would probably work as is, but I'll go throgh it. Suspension and brakes will be the biggest up grade, I want it to drive, turn, and stop like a newer car.
Other than time, it's no big woop. I will post pic later.
Thanks all
