    Ed, the panel looks good. I hated to cut a rust free body; but, the panels are going to a good car project.

    Rick, it really IS good to see that metal end up in such good hands.

    Ed is amazing with sheet metal.

    It sucks that he is wasting his talent working in concrete...:huh:

    worked on the passenger quarter panel today and moulded in the spoiler to the trunk lid and quarter extensions. Or is this the trunk and spoiler off the elusive Shelby Maverick......:huh: :dance:
