@SNLC appreciate the part number for the hinges!

We have made so many things along the way on this build, for example.

I think Chris had to do some work here so the late model windshield fits the early doors.

LHS door is a replacement, the RHS has the double bolts for windshield frame.

LHS only had singles so we had to drill and tap to make sure it matches the RHS.

Cruiser was originally spring green.

LHS door was originally red.

Took some work to get the door gap right here.

Doors aligned pretty good for the body shop.

Off it goes tomorrow!

Cheers

Care to share part numbers?

Just got them from a Japanese vendor, via ebay (for my future J45 PUP resto)...

Now that the 67’ is at the painters I have been speaking to the owner and the paint shop.

I think this painter is top notch and really knows his work. They did all the Legacy Classic dodges for the first 3-5yrs when Legacy got started.

They are really doing a lot of great stuff during the body resto process. I am excited to see it when it comes back! Interior is also getting done at the same time so when it comes back to us we won’t have to do much besides final assembly. Also the painter said early next year he will be done.

Cheers

Do painters ever hit their target dates?

Not from my experience!
