When I was a little kid i found a phillips head screwdriver, within a few minutes I took apart my dad's double tape deck recorder..
When my dad got home from work he saw his dubbing machine in several peices on the floor..
He looked at me and clearly said "Son, anybody can take something apart, put it back together and if it still works I'll be impressed.."
I am always amazed at intense bodywork like that.. But I do wonder why you would put so much work into a shell that is a dime a dozen.. Maybe I missed another post where you said what your goal was for the car? Stock? Wide? whats going on there.?

Welll, Dime a dozen maybe.... LMK when you find one that dosnt have a ding, scratch, dent, ~WAVE~, in ANY panel, Rust ANYWERE under the paint or in any corner. I painted the engine bay already thats why its coverd up. My father builds Hot rods, he does sheet metal / body work for a living. like chip foose on a serious note, The pictures you see has maybe 5 hours of time invested MAYBE. he took the quarter off in 30min if that. I have about $150.00 invested in this so far and thats because i bought quarters. Ive done other restoration. I have a 90civic SI i put on a rotisorie. Maybe ill post up some pics of some other cars when i get a chance.
