thanks guys everything so far has gone real good.been trying to locate some parts to tie the windshield posts to the cowl back together,might have those,but until they are in my hands i cant work on that part of the car.I did score a tailpanel for a very good price.that should be here this week,hope the company that is delivering it doesnt destroy it.will get photos of mine and the one that i bought as soon as its here.and yes i mig weld everything i can but until i get the trunk pans in and the tailpanel here i will have to wait on installing the part i made.but I will keep posting photos as i go.and just remember any of you can do this work too, just take the time and practice,ask questions and practice some more.
