That's an awesome deal! $6,000 for such a solid, all options fastback seems great to me! Good bidding!

I don't know how I missed this one- you are doing a great job and the new car looks to be in great shape.

Looks like the new one definately has the fold down rear seat. Looking forward to more progress pics on both.

Hey guys thanks for all the compliments. As tempting as it is to put up progress pics, I'm holding out till we have something worth the post! I promise to have some new pics up Saturday or Sunday. We have to start priming the underneath before it gets too cold here so we'll be workin real hard this weekend!

K so maybe I can't hold out, here are some progress pics. Got the seat risers in and I finished stripping the doors. More to come soon...

Very cool. Nice work. I think that might be my favorite year.

hmm, I thought I saw one one time with a vinyl top. Did they ever make um' like that?

Vinyl top in the coupes, not fastbacks.

Got a lot done today. We worked for almost 9 hours! The weather is getting colder here in Ohio and we wanted to get the underneath epoxy primed before it got under 60 degrees. Aaron was on the grinder almost all day, as well as sandblasting the surface rust off of what wasn't replaced. I want the bottom to look as good as the top so we are busting our hump. We got the priming done today, tomorrow we will begin to smooth the seams, and then hopefully Monday we will be able to prime over it again. After the second prime, we will be using U-pol Raptor or some kind of heavy duty bedliner. We will also get some seam sealer on the inside tomorrow. Unfortunately these pics were taken from my phone because I forgot my camera. Excuse the poor quality!
