Jed not much work done in the past couple of weeks. My kids start thier spring sports so that is taking up a lot of my time for the next month or so. I do have the car on my body jig and the floor pans are all installed. Any new pictures of the car will be posted on the L79 registry in the future here is the link.

http://68l-79novaregistry.com/68_L-7...ners_Page.html

Not to mention I promised a family friend I would put a drivers side floor pan in his 1964 chevy 2 nova super sport last year. So that is in my garage now. He has owned the car since 1969. It was his first car. A real nice car that had a floor patch years ago brazed it. What a pain in the A## to cut out. Not to mention the sparks from the cut off wheel. You have to be extra carefull doing this work with a finished car. LOL!

Jason

Moving forward with the restoration. I have the rearend all rebuilt and detailed. The L79 is at the machine shop. The transmission should be back at the end of the week.I just got the car onto the rotisserie and media blasted the bottom today. I also had time to put some black epoxy and high build primer on it. Time to start sanding.
