This side hasn't had much media attention. All glass is in and the vent window frames are on along with the painted top moldings and corners.

Same as passenger, minus the vent window. Repop frame broke after it was installed. I just tested the window and the welds broke on the frame. But, a new one is in it's place. Temporary rocker molding until the fender goes on.

The rear end. The &quot;non&quot; SS trim panel, and not the plastic one either.

Rear body to bumper seal with stainless staples. No glue, and I made the staples.

Minor details of the two inspection marks that I had found on the oringinal trunk weatherstip, or atleast what was left of the original.

Jed looks great. I really like the 2 different colors. What did you do for your bright trim around the doors and quarter windows? Are they original or aftermarket. If original what steps did you use?

Coming along nicely Jed. Nice detail and often overlooked one with the staples. Fun wasn't it.... [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/wink.gif[/img]
