Yeah, the brake hub on the rear looks brand new.

I'm confused. The latest pictures have tire covers on so I can paint. Is that what you mean?

Soaring · 02-19-2007, 08:33 PM

No, from an earlier picture on page 1.

That is a wheel spacer to make the 05 rims work

Oh, OK. Looks to be more than an inch thick. Is that going to rub on the fender lip, or will you roll the quarter panel?

Great post. I hope this hangs around for future reference when I statrt cutting and welding in the spring. After the snows goes.

No the tires fit fine, no rub. BTY this thread is in the FAQ

Yeah, John is one of our resident experts on body repair./restoration. I just wish John would come fixOl' Yeller's rear quarter panel.

I was thinking about painting my fenders off the car since it is stripped to shell, is therea reason why you painted the car with all the panels on? I had always thought it is better to paint it with the panels off and then re-assemble (or do you paint it together so that you won't chip the paint putting it back together - I saw them use masking tape to mock stuff up on TV)?
