The glass is in the car though I still have some adjustments to do on the door window tracks. I dug upnsome barrel/tubular nuts and put the letters on the tail panel
The carpet and interior are next on the list.

Hi not much. The hood is on the car and body panels have been adjusted.. it needs the interior reinstalled and rear bumper put on. It's currently in my buddies garage. He is asking me to help him finish the car so there will probably be progress posted soon.

Thanks Matt. I.can finally see some light at the end of the tunnel as far as getting this thing back on the road. I still have some small mechanical and wiring issues in addition to the finishing needed on the body but the car will start up and can be driven down the road. Hoping to get the final pieces on the body and block and buff the clear soon then do the decals.. I did leave some of the stuff on the car that Glenn previously posted about in his thread even though was either not correct or original to the car build such as the unitised distrubutor, chrome valve covers and deluxe interior. This car will be driven and the original plan was for it to be a nice driver that will see the road fairly often so I am fine with not being totally correct for the original build. Just want to finally cruise it lol.

It's still unfinished and sitting in my friends garage. He has been asking me to get back over there. I have been a little busy thinning out my herd of parts and other projects while helping my son build his truck and trying to get some work done on my 74 superduty project. I am hoping to give him a hand in rhe summer to get thie thing going back down the road and able to be enjoyed again. I will post as soon as there is some noticeable progress on the car.

Here are a few more pics of progress on the car. It still needs the wheel flares put on along with a new headliner and some othe interior work. I have put a put 1,000 miles on it working out the bugs but it's getting there.

That bumper turned out nice! How did you clean the INSIDE of the bumper? Mild sandblast? Looks good.

Thanks. Normally I would of Blasted it with 000 sand but after hitting it with a red scotchbrite and some 400 grit sandpaper it looked pretty decent so I hit it with some RM 801 metal conditioner which is phosphoric acid and water mixed. Then I painted. With the seymour stainless steel and finished the brackets in black.

The car looks great! Glenn would be amazed.
