Frame was removed and sandblasted by a professional, then painted withPor 15. Body was sandblasted by a pro also, no warping. He left a little Bondo on doors and fenders as he didn't want to chance warping. It will sand off easily and won't require more than a skim coat. I sprayed the bottom and inside with epoxy primer thinking I would get to the outside body soon, but haven't.
Hood front fenders and grille are invery goodcondition.
Back fenders are fair but will require a little metal work. P.O. was unskilled and preferred Bond to working out the dents where he had backed up by Braille.
I have a new aluminum radiator with cooling fan.
I installed a Heidts MustangII independent front suspension with 2'' drop spindles and power rack and pinion steering. It has 11' disc brakes also.
Rear end is a 8.8 from a ''99 explorer with disc brakes and can be locked.
I have spot welded a new firewall with a 2'' backset for a v-8 engine.
I have a new front floor tacked in and have new toe boards and new transmission tunnel not yet installed.
In the back, I got lucky and found a original trunk lid to replace the rotted out one on the car. It has a couple dents but have almost got them pulled out.
I also have a new trunk extension (tool Box) andrear tail pan tacked in.
I have running boards also but they should probably be replaced.
The original gas tank has been boiled out and sealed.
I have a box of complete new glass for the car.
The dash board components are complete and boxed for reuse. All the door handles, lights, etc. were also boxed for reuse. I do not have the original steering shaft or wheel but have one from a newer car you can have.
I do have the original seat and has been reupholstered.
The Chevy 283engine is newly rebuilt and has not even been fired up yet as is the 700r4 transmission.
I have other projects that I would like to work on and would like to thin the herd so come buy this little jewel and lighten the load.
