Mark, have you come up with a plan yet of how tackle the driver side rocker to get the late extra humps flat to match the early style? It would be nice to get it right

I bought a pair of NOS rockers ages ago before I was educated by the forum (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif) and realised there was a difference between early and late, so at some point I'm going to have the same issue. It would need a BFO hammer (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif)

Looking fab though!

Is it going to be flared or back to narrow body?

Great to see this car restoration being done right and being done in the skilled, capable hands of McMark. I really enjoy seeing projects such as this getting completed and the different stages it goes through on its road to recovery.

Andy, enjoy the car restoration and thanks for taking on the task. It does deserve to be brought back to the road.

It does make my day in reading through this thread.
