    It's actually primer. The car was picked up last week, I need to go over tomorrow and drop off the bumpers I picked Tuesday, I was going to drop them off earlier but the truck's cooling fan went out. Fixing that tonight then dropping the bumpers off tomorrow. I'll take pics then.

    Make sure they put the Buck Tag back on or give it to you, if it's still on the car now. I think I see it in that last image.

    I got to see the car this week, Its going a bit slower than he thought due to the Holidays, the metal work is coming along great, but the bumpers are being a pain. I had no idea how hard it was to find an 84GT front bumper cover. So the old bumper is off to be restored. No big deal just more money! but I knew this wasn't going to be cheep or quick when I started it. Hope to have pics soon.

    finally a photo update, saw the car today. Hood, fenders and doors are ready for paint, and the body should be ready by next week. we pulled it out of the garage and turned it around today. I snagged some pics, and here they are.


    doesn't look like much right now but it will soon.

    Excellent progress! Can't wait to see the rocker stripes back on this one. You definitely deserve a big pat on the back for this save!

    The predator is coming home today. I'm about to start my mad rush to Finnish rearranging the garage to make sure NOTHING can fall over and hit the car. I'll be posting pictures (LOTS) of pictures this afternoon, so stay tuned for lots of sexy car porn.

    the lower part of the firewall was just a bit out of the budget. to say this car needed love is an understatement. any way the car is back home, and tucked in nice in the garage. we finished up the reassembly and got it on the trailer, and then home. But it was to dark for any good pictures. So sadly this is all I have for you all today. Its still covered in dust, but take my word it looks great.
