I have not posted the progress of my 73 six conversion, so I thought before I got it to paint I should post some pics. The car was purchased from a guy in Ohio as a "Virtually Rust Free Car". He provided photos and did point out some of the rust spots. He neglected to point out that the car had once been wrecked in the rear and there was no rust from the wreck because they used 40 lbs of bondo to cover it. The entire trunk had to be cut out to fix it, as well as part of the passenger floor panel.
Anyway it is about to go to the painter to get GT Flares, GT Rocker Panels, GT Rear Valence and some new color. All in all this car is in great shape, all things considered. Any way here you go. Attached image(s)
