Keep in mind that water only gets "better" farther south it goes. Didn't your H.S. get its water from their anyways?

That would explain many things.

Nothing prettier than a fresh coat of GM corporate blue to watch dry in the morning while having your first cup of fresh brewed joe.

View attachment 226906Started top half of door more metal working proved changes to bottom half its the whole door or nun seen a little dent on other side when I took the warped Darby board to the other side for curvature check

Still working on drivers door looks like it's going to take a week on it also 50 hours plus

Wet sanding remember body newbies primer under any spot putty .while the picture appears impossibly rough its just the lens, it's really shaped up well considering the uncounted days one door can take .its better to find a door that's not wrecked:

Passenger quarter panel almost done.

There’s a little more orange peel near the tail panel and door jamb, I’ll take care of those areas by hand with 2000 grit.

Carried on the backs of semi’s straight up Ole’ Route 28.

Lots of minerals right there. What doesn't kill you can make you stronger

Bummer about that broken piston ring! Hope you can get a replacement without too much trouble!


Busy days lately with work and some family issues to tend to and haven’t done much to my car. I did get out in the garage for a hour and got the front fender parking lights and wheel opening moldings installed. The moldings cleaned up pretty well for originals and don’t have any dents as best I could see. Think I’m going to throw the NOS rocket badges on fenders next. Not sure if I’m going to replace the belt line moldings or leave it as is. Will decide at some point.

Front of the passenger quarter panel and all but the front and top of the passenger door done. The fender looks as close to glass already, so hopefully I can knock that out as a whole tomorrow and move on to the trunk.

Found some good music while I was at it:

Very mellow music. so what's the name of the band/group?
