What color/colors are you going to paint it? I sure wish I was doing the body on my 55 instead of a V8 in the 62... oh well? Looks good though! post up some more as you progress

I am not sure paint wise what I'm going to do. I have it at Boise State so the students are working on it. It is a slow process but it is getting done. They are just cutting rust out and replacing all the metal right now.

Next Semester (as long as they keep it) They will start doing dents and filler. Then fall 09 they will paint. So hopefully it all happens.

They rebuilt my driver door hinges and one of the passenger door hinges drilled for a new pin put a brass sleeve in and made a new pin. They are supposed to remount the doors today and do POR-15 on the floors. I will try to get some more pictures soon. I will be out of town most of next week though.

The body is in a lot better shape now than it was. Most of the rust is gone and the Plastic body filler starts in march.
