Man that sucks. I remember you posting the pics of this car last summer when I found that 79 just around the corner from me in Dallas. It was beautiful and will be again no doubt. You do great work .

How did you go about reshaping the quarter panel? Did you use a stud welder, work it from inside the hatch, or porta power? Or something else?

Hello.I remember you buying the twin car , did you keep it? I worked the damage by the tail light opening, plenty of room to work with it Did my best to work it where the least amout of bondo was used (my friend wanted me to cut the hole quater panel and replace it ) and it worked aout good.

Back to bussiness pictures and notice tinted windows...NICE!

Looks like it was never damaged. Great work! Man the car sure looks sexy with the tinted windows. I do still have the SA. Turns out it was originally yellow and is a little more rare than thought. The PO had it painted gold and then the white you saw. The good thing is that it was a one owner car. It does need some TLC though. My friend and I are still considering selling it. Would you be interested in another project??? LOL
