I can't wait!! I'm getting the front header panel welded in tomorrow then I can start the panel straightening since all the metal replacement will be done and it'll hold it's own shape. The inside of the bed and the top rails will be shot with color matched Line-X so there will only be minimal bodywork to do there- that stuff hides minor waves/ripples. There won't be much area to block sand that way so bodywork won't take all that long. Still not sure what we'll do about a tailgate. Can't find one so I may end up making it.


When this one is finished I get to start body/paint on a '58 VW Bug Ragtop. Supposed to be rust free and straight, stored in a dry garage for years... I won't know how to act with no rust to fix!!
