what filler/glazing are you using to finish off the fiberglass? I’ve been on the look out for some better than what I have now. and damn, that nose looks like your going to have even more fun sanding, fitting, and fiberglassing. ---

The nose isnt too bad, it will require a little bit of work but nothing close to what the trunk needed. ---

It’s coming along nicely. the weather is finally working in my favor. Tomorrow I’m gonna do the other rear quarter. Since the doors need little to no work I might even get them done tomorrow too. I ordered a bunch of little odds and ends today, lower rear valence, hood pin brackets, light tension hood springs. The taillight panel will be here Thursday so I can get the rear end, taillights and lower valence all fitted on Friday. Then next week the hood will be here so I can start working on the fenders, and front end. ---

I haven’t really decided yet,Its gonna be another month by the time i have all of the body parts. I think by the time I get everything I need to even make it road legal, get it fitted, its gonna be around that time anyway. So it will prob be painted. It may not be lowered, have the correct wheels, or anything like that but I think there is a good chance it might at least be painted.
