    WOW    LOve that car.   Dont you hate how the rear quarters rust from the inside out?

    Front bumperettes :jumping:  Shame they put the holes in the hood.   Hey, do me a favor and take a pic under the hood. I wanna see how the washer squirter hose is ran from the hood to the bottle and what color clamps they were

    Will do Allen, I will get it tomorrow.

    Yes the do have a tendency to rust from the inside out. 

    They put the hood pins in the wroung location.  But I am going to put a ralley hood on, so not a big deal.

    Looks like a great score. You're gonna have a lot of fun with that car.  :2thumbs:

    Save that flat hood. You might want to convert it to a shaker some day. The hood pin holes can be welded up so no big problem there.

    Yes I got all the trim, it is stuffed inside the car right now.  This weekend I will get it all sorted out.

    They started taking it apart to restore her and baged and tagged everything so it won't be to bad. hopefully.
