The tin work is out for now. Here is a beter look a the factory rails even with some of the stock floor attached. Every bit of the stock rails are there,all he way to the tail panel,not even notched,just switched from side to side at the back. The car looks to have spent some time as a big tire car with leaf springs under it before the ladder bars and coil overs went in. It stil has the outer wheelhouses just trimmed when the wheelwells were radiused. the tubs are riveted to the stock outer houses.

Real GM metal from a donor car.



Every bit of original metal was retained by cutting the patch exactly,then but welding it in,and hammer and dollying it reasonably straight(still needs some work).





Bug bombed white just so it looks better for now.

It is hard to tell where the stripes were,but they were near the edge of he filler panel over the orange and yellow. I ended up sanding too much and blurring the lines because there was black primer in between the layers too. The car was stripped to bare metal before being painted white before 1975,but the jams were never stripped so I have just a few tiny areas to work with.

Well,here it is. The original Wheatley bros car,after it was sold to Ronnie Staples. The shop pics are from early 72,the racing pics from the summer of 72. This is EXACTLY how I plan on restoring the car. My plan is to have my name done on the doors slightly smaller then the existing Ronnie Staples name,and Jenkin's competition on the quarter. I plan on having magnetic stick ons made with Ronnie's name and his speed shop's logo to use in nostalgia shows and special events. I need to find a set of 15x12 and front runner slotted mags.
