Prior to restoration
there were the usual minor rust areas. All spots were completely removed, cut out, and professionally replaced, better then
original. Some nice patch paneling was installed and ground down smooth before body work was even started. There are hundreds
of hours in the body and paint on this car.
The fire wall was notched back and molded smooth to follow valve
cover contour, must see it to appreciate it.
All the inner glass moldings were chromed.

The
