    All i did yesterday was installed brake shoes on rear and paint drum.

    Fedex came buy with 4 shocks and lower control arm.

    It'll be a productive weekend if i get rear shocks installed before 1830.

    I been working the last 3 weeks so I havent had much time to work on the girl. Since the dash is out, I guess I'm gonna practice on honing my painting skill. Gonna go to the library or amazon and see if there is a body work for dummies book. I'm at the point with the car that if I'm gonna get it done, now is the time.

    Also, any suggestions on a product to bond my heater box back together?

    Fiberglass works well if you prep the surface right.

    Went over to my buddies where my car is at and he surprised me. He put in my new 71 dash, put in my 69.5 key assembly and installed a floor shifter for me! I have been busy with school and he wanted to surprise me. I was utterly shocked when I saw it! :) I also put on my new seat covers from Richard Jones, absolutely fantastic quality if anyone needs a set. He does good work. 905AB99B-2F01-45CE-A7BA-63DE6EAB7EC8.jpeg AF2DBA0F-78E4-41AE-9964-21947413D647.jpeg
