I have an 84 C4 all stock except for the head unit and some aftermarket speakers from previous owner. (still had the blose bazooka tube)
Here is a few before pictures. I was involved in a hit and run on the RHR. So i planned accordingly bought a new bumper to replace the wrap around and patch the rear quarter panel.
