It's been awhile since i posted any progress pics so here are a few. My buddy Mike restored the grill assembly for me and did a fantastic job. Last week we went out to the shop where it's stored and got some wrenchtime in on the car.  I ordered up new Grill Chrome from Gunslinger and the fit and finish are top shelf.  I also have new bumpers on both ends from Goodmark and i would have to give them a  So, lots of work done and some more still to do but it's getting there. Hope to have the engine and trans in this w/e. First pic : looks bare w/o the grill  Second pic : backside of the restored grill assembly....all new hardware and some cad plating  Last pic : the installed grill and front bumper....starting to look more like a completed PIG Ron |

Nice Ron! Good to see you get to work on your own car too instead of just helping us all the time. |
