Yup, like a Labrador at a tennis court!!!! I’ll grab all the first balls I see then randomly run one down into a hole and dig for it half the day…….

I had an idea yesterday. 💡 since your in the bartering mood….

I’ll fix your baywindow up real nice make it run and drive perfect.

….all you have to do is give up the 52 split. I’ll even buy all the parts your baywindow needs????

Just think about how awesome it’s going to be re-living your high school days…I can even paint it purple(with house paint, no rust repair) and mount the bong between the front seats for you. 😀

Heh! Can’t believe you remember my high school Bus so well!!!! 😉😉😉 No, I’ll keep the old junk! 😀

Seat backs back from powder coat! Yeah!! On to something else!!!😀

So, who has a rear seat bottom?????😉

Stoked!!! Next Step!!!! So, my pan halves are replaced, correct, Gerson pans. Somehow with the heavy T -bone it’s still straight.? Think I should nerd out on the pan cuz I wanna have it all good with the front seat wing mounts and all that..So, finish the pan 100% as a good progressive move forward!

Hmmm, think this is a more sober plan. Body really shouldn’t get off the pan til we finish some stuff…..drivers side still has rust repair in rear corners and inside wheel well. Front clip still needs to cut in  the Split curved piece above the beam, gotta figure out if I’m gonna call the front clip good or cut up some stuff and re-fit in the spare tire area……I bet we need a few days on the body before it’s really ready to pull off the pan. So, guess that’s really the next step! 😀😀😀

Cool plans!

I didn’t see the when and how listed in there?

Lets paint the pan and build a driver chassis all super nice like you said first….. And while the body is off we finish the repairs and paint that sucker too! Kind of like Cole just did.

Be done with this project already.

I AGREE!!!  I would love to see something done with this car!!!   I would think you are in fairly good position to ask for a few weeks off from work and come down here????

Not really, but as I bounce from project to project, I do notice the good potential on this one! I’ve got a Bunch of the parts now, all new glass, new early brake cables, correct steering wheel, early headlights,  all seats but the rear bottom, most of the handles, latches.. have the OG fenders but bought another nicer Split set from JJ….. Standard Pod, horn button and tail lights would close up most of the Unobtanium list!!!!😀
