Mr D.

Well guys here are some pictures of the project. It has been 1 1/2 years in the making and many $$$ later I might be on the road by New Years. I still need to get to the alingment shop and have hood and rear valace painted. I will have it stripped and Painted next year at some point. Thinking of Steel Cities Gray, hmmmm. This has been a huge project and one I enjoyed very much even though it got out of control at times. How many times did I say to myself, "Mr D your in to deep, keep going" haha Enjoy the pictures.


This is what I started with. What was I thinking!!!!



This Body looks ok from afar but has many issues



Engine and Frame is complete, about 18K for those that want to know. WOW, What was I thinking!!!!



New donner 69 body I found on Ebay, boy I'm getting in deep now



Almost complete with 20 foot paint job



Still need to put more parts back here

Really nice
Was the birdcage rusted out on the original body?

Mr D.

Windshield frame was bad, the rest of the cage was good. Had damage in all four wheel wells and really needed 2 fenders and a Rear Qrt for starters. Floor board was cracked in 3 areas and the battery box had a hole in it you could throw a cat through. I was looking at $6000 in parts and labor just to get it ready for paint. I cut my losses on that body.
