I wanted to show my new project before it starts. I have been doing alot of researching on this forum and it looks like a great place to get support on restoring a 69 Vette. Any way have a look and wish me luck on this project.

Make sure the frame is straight before you start putting lost of money into the bodywork. All the fibreglass can be replaced.

There is a guy selling a NOS fender in the parts section right now that you should probably consider.

Good luck.

Frame looks good only thing partialy bent is the Front body mount. When I got the car I got 70% of the parts to repair, so I have a top fender piece and a side fender piece. Your right the duck tape won't hold.

Thanks.
