    No more pics yet but just came in from working on it. So far under the deck lid is in primer and one side cowl. Getting closer a little at a time. Hoping to have it ready for paint at the end of march.

    The pics make it look worse then it does. I have done complete quarters and patches before but it has being awhile. I'm not much of a body man but I'm hoping practice makes at least decent lol.
