Re: Olds powered 72 GMC

I'm extremely relieved to see no issues with the repair work done in the early 70's to the bottom of the a-pillar. The only accident that the car was ever in, required a new pass. fender as it also was pushed into the pillar. The seriousness was sooooooo over-played!!! The paint match was pretty bad, but that was it. Just a couple shots after a bit of de-greasing. I flaked off some of the crappy paint and found clean galvanized metal at the bottom of the pillar. I think all of you guys will appreciate why I don't feel it nescessary to completely restore this car yet. Even up here, these cars are extremely rare. This has to be the most beautiful, unmolested vehicle that I have ever taken apart. I had to pull the fender just to know for shure. It's good to know that I don't have to pull the other for quite a while! It's gonna earn a full restoration before it get's one.
