This guy is my new hero. :o Forget Superman.

I anxiously await more progression photos. You've renewed my faith in restoration of the most hopeless of derelict bodies.

Awesome job, I am going to tackle this hopefully fairly soon.  I do have a question, is the deck filler panel welded to the quarters in the sail panel area?  Thanks  Matt

Problem is we are waiting on new doors for the final fitment as I don't want to use anything other than the doors that are staying on the car. Shawn was on a real roll over the last few months but this could delay things. I'm hoping paint by spring but in the mean time the 440 is being torn down then sent out for machining etc. Thx for the comments guy's it's been a long wait!

Cheers

I have read on some posts where people recommend doing quarters and what not when the car is on the wheels instead of on stands, some even recommend having the engine in it before lining everything up.  I was just wondering if it is okay having it on jack stands since that would be the way I probably do it.......unless of course it would screw something up

Shawn has done a ton of cars so I'm trusting his judgement & now he has a right hand man that is guiding him also.
