Default This Weekend's Progress

Got the rocker panel completely off, started to remove the outer wheel housing until I found out that someone welded it to the innner (I thought it was just supposed to be spot welded together but ther seem is welded). I'm just going to patch out the rust spots with a new outer wheel house. If my wife doesn't give birth this weekend (to our third child) I'll hopefully get that side of the car at least tack welded. If she does I'll post pics of the baby next week.

Here are some pics:

Looks like you are making progress, but still a long, long way to go.

Some people are happy buying one done......for me the only way is straight out of scratch. It's a labor of love!!!
