Latest pics from the body shop.  New rear quarters from Goodmark are freaking awesome!  They will go on soon.  New inner fender wells, new fender to go in also, had the roof repaired.  Keep you posted.

gb70,
Looking great!
Did the shop fabricate the front windshield/roof pillar patch or did you get a donor part from another chally?

Cracks me up when a seller claims that it is a rust free car.  Ya right  :blah:  The bead blast machine does not lie.  I prefer to do these types of projects so I know that it is done correctly, to my standards.  In the long run it may cost a little more but at least you know what you have and what you did.

When people ask me about rust and cars I usually anserws therm, there aren`t such a thing as a rustfree car ,all used cars have rust on them wether you can see it or not.

Update pictures from the metal work












The new panels that just came out from Goodmark are the best the shop has ever used, period!

  Things are progressing along nicely. I know you sent the car out to be stripped but are your using a local shop for the rest. If so I need to get ahold of you and get more info on the 71--and check your chally out. I just got mine out last week and might take it out this  Sat. for a little spin. Still need to get your address so I will e-mail you.  Doug
