Topic: The Phoenix - Rise From The Ashes

That car is pretty rough at first glance.  You definitely have your work cut out for you from my perspective.  But, we all have to start somewhere I suppose and you'll be getting most of what you need from us.  Once the body is solid your probably in pretty good shape.

That's for sure. I am in no way a body man. When I was doing cars in my old shop I did all the mechanical and electrical. Even interior up to a point. But my uncle was the paint and body guy. One nice thing about doing it myself though is I can do any custom fabrication I think I can handle.

I need a decent, but affordable mig welder.   lol

[rkellerjr]

Your uncle around to help?

[Joker (§ir£Ðragon)]

Sure, if I wanted to drag it back to Dallas. lol


Besides, my family isn't speaking to me.

Probably cause you wear too much makeup.  Have you really looked at your avatar pic?  Just too much base.

Brush on some POR-15 and it'll buff out.

Got the next delivery! I didn’t even know there was anything today until Caela (my 9 y/o step daughter) came in struggling with a large flat box that stood on end as tall as she was.



Brand new black door panels!!! Pat wrote and said that PUI had offered to donate half the cost of these and seat covers and the next thing I know these are here!  WOO HOO!!!

The shipping label says it’s package 1 of 2 so the seat covers must also be on their way.

All I need for these are a couple junk panels that I can use the upper structure from (where it wraps over the top of the door and hooks on) and arm rests.
