NEW ARRIVAL-69 NOVA L-78 4 speed with 7,000 miles

[Pantera]

Last pic today... Side shot. (this is the way I got it)

Some one in the past sprayed black paint on it to try to stop the surface rust. Sure makes it look like hell.

The Rear wheel wells are totally gone both sides. Only major rust in the whole car except for the spot on the trunks R lower corner and under the taillights.

I really hate to have to change the entire quarter panel. Thinking about scabing in a repair just big enought to eliminate the rusted out area's.

Please share your thoughts on this with me. I would like to just repair the problems and repaint this car and keep it as close to a "surivor" as I can. There are just not very many cars like this around anymore and it would be a shame to over restore it. I am sure that there are those of you, that would like to see what one looks like from the factory and that has not been messed with any more than necessary.


Please feel free to voice your opinion on this subject.

Thanks guys for your interest and stay tuned for more to come...
