    Good looking work. That larger quarter patch looks awesome in primer. I wasn't expecting that dramatic of a before and after.  :2thumbs:

    Your progress is looking great! :thumbsup:  It's been so long since I worked on mine I'll probably be repainting most of what was done the next time I pick up a body hammer/dolly. lol  You definitely went with the right choice in getting some sort of frame connectors in.  Unfortunately for me, the shop painted the underbody before I decided I need frame connectors & torque boxes installed, so it'll be getting some touch-ups done when those two items are installed.

    we were planning on paint this weekend, but my Dad says it's not ready... there needs to be more blocksanding, got the exhaust on not welded in yet and the frame conectors I didn't get to weld them, I had to pull the intake off, to change the gaskets and valley pan, hopefully we can atleast get the jambs and trunk painted this week.. as you can see in the last pic we are still blocksanding, the edges are a pain.. hopefully we can atleast get the doorjambs and trunk lid, ect painted soon...

    got my frame connectors welded in, and exhaust completed.. inner trunk lid and door jambs along with valance panels should be painted tomorrow... thought I would show pics of the exhaust without the wrapping on// got to start car today, they sound really good :) but I am still having problems with it popping through the carb, when it warms up... i'll work that out after it's painted...
