Well it's been about a month or so since I started the 58.
The one with no floors, sills, or frame rails.
All of that is finished as of tonight. FINALLY! seems like it took forever but then again I had some surgery in the middle of this all so I was slow going for a couple weeks.
The car was media blasted, new floors, sills, boot floor, and pretty much all the frame rails have been replaced.
The underside is in epoxy primer and I will be shooting the floor white tomorrow evening since it's still on it's side in the garage I can get to it real easy.
I hope to put it back belly down maybe Wednesday and start the body work.
All other bits and pieces have arrived, the dash is covered and all instruments are in it. front and rear suspension is powdercoated and ready to install as are the brakes.
I still have to do the interior but I already made all the panels, I just have to cover them.
Making all those patch panels gets to be old after awhile.
I did buy floors and sills but all the larger flat and smaller patch panels kept me busy with a brake, vise, snips, and angle grinder.
Maybe I'll get a picture of it with it's fresh white belly tomorrow.
