I bought this car earlier this year. I bought it with the intentions of stripping it down and giving it a new paint job. The passenger door had been hit before. They did a good job repairing it with filler, but I decided to pick up another door that needed minimal work to make it look nice. (the old repair was right on the body lines and was way beyond me trying to fix)....so this is how the car looks now. Drivers side looks good, the passenger side speaks for itself. Lol. It will be getting sprayed in the next few weeks hopefully.

Definitely better to get a decent door than have one filled with pounds of bondo...are you repainting the entire car or are you gonna try to blend the new paint with the existing? Is the rest of the car in decent shape?/ is it all original?
 
The whole car is going to be repainted.....It has had one repaint in it's life before. The overall condition is very good, minimal body work needed. I have all the original drive-train, but as it sits now, it has a nicely built sbc in it. Interior is near mint.
 
Hell yeah... Looks really clean. Are you gonna go blur again with the factory 442 paint scheme?

Yep! I want to keep the factory look as much as possible. And thanks!
