    I got the spare tire well out, took longer to find my spot weld cutter then actually removing it.

    No, it's going to Chris Acors for the cage. I want one that fits nice and I don't have a bender.

    Doing some wiring and finishing up running the brake lines. I had to find the v8 hard line to soft line bracket for the rear brakes for a reasonable price. Some places wanted $60 for it. ah...no.

    Time for it to go in for a cage.....The hold up is I need a-pillar trim. Anyone got a lead on some? I've heard 83-86 LTD/Marquis pieces will fit. Can anyone confirm?

    Great looking welds you got there. I'm SOO glad I'm done with that part.

    I wish I could say those are mine and I'll be really glad when I'm past this part of the build.

    Sorry no, and the car isn't where I can get some for you quickly but I will when I can. They fit really well and I don't see them being a point of failure.

    Time to put all the glass in. I have the metal trim, and the back side glass, that is all. I'll probably have a shop do it but what exactly will they need for:
    The windshield - does it require rubber molding?
    The rear glass - does it require rubber molding?
    Back side glass, do they require clips?

    Really nice looking car. Like your choice of paint.
    Good luck finishing up.
