    jeremy, were you first or the car? seems more like you're brothers. instead of the show "my mother the car" we could do "my brother the maverick":rofl2: J/K looks good. glad your getting it done and a quality job. maybe i'll get to see it at one of the ffw's.:)

    Bodywork is coming along SWEET!!!!

    I'd like to start by putting a before/after shot of the rear 1/4 where he fixed it. this pic doesn't do justice, it was taco'd and folded like mad.

    [​IMG]

    this is NOW a shot of the inside after the fix. Man he pounded that out CLEAN, and You can't even tell literally that it had damage there.

    [​IMG]

    Here is an early pic. He was JUST beginning to cut and weld the patch panels on. He still has a lot of work left on it, He was literally just beginning when I got there.

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    I'll put the before pics up next time.

    Here is a shot of the dr side in early primer stage. You can see the grabber hood in the background. I'll be doing both hoods for this car, the stocker, and the grabber hood. Additionally, I'll be ordering a grabber spoiler for this car.

    [​IMG]

    This car is happening quick, so next update will come in a couple of days, where it should be in full primer with all bodywork complete
