Default Re: "The Beater Bee" becomes "The Better Bee"

TAAA DAA!!!!! This is a monumentabulous event! The metal work is 100% done as of yesterday with only one thing left to do on the initial body assembly and that's strip and prime the decklid! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img] What did the Beater Bee need? Michigan (and Gary) took a toll on the body. Luckily, having been taken off the road permanently in 1977, the salts couldn't do more damage than they did. A driver's side floor patch, both trunk extensions, the passenger quarter needed 3 large patches (fore and aft of the wheelwell and large top portion of the wheel lip), part of the passenger outside wheelhouse, the driver's side quarter needed a small forward patch, a large rear patch, and lastly, a passenger side window corner. There's some extensive fiberglass work that I need to do on the hood. That thing really has taken a beating! It's good to see the car as a whole entity again!
