Ok, Finally got my camera and took some pics of my 85' Cutty build to post before i get too deep into it. Actually, this build is really all about the body work and paint since mechanically it's pretty much done just as i bought it. So, my goal is to black it out, possibly leaving some chrome but just haven't decided yet, and I'll probably just wing it and see what happens. Who knows, by the time I get the bodywork done, I may just go with another color scheme. I knew the body was pretty much rust free except for the drivers door, which i thought was too far gone to salvage, but after removing and stripping it down, It really doesn't look that bad! A little welding, some Rust Mort, and some epoxy primer and she'll be as good as new. Also, the vinyl top has been stripped only to discover no rust! Bonus! Heres what the car came with when I bought it...
