yea I reworked it and the sill a little to get it to fit a little tighter.
last night I worked on the car for a while. I took the body off so I could install the back glass and while I have it off I also did some sound dead paint on the outside chassis
as well as the wheel wells to cut down road noise.
since the body is off I am going to finish the underside of each part before I put them back on the car.
yesterday the painter gave me a sample of the lambo paint I am using for the car and I tried to get a pic of it but it is a little hard to do on a paint stick.





one steep back to take 3 forward? I hope!

LOL! no I did not kill her the body was just bolted on with a few bolts so it would be easy to tweak things.
I will have it back together before you know it.

we car rebuild her... stronger, better, faster!

I think that color is going to be amazing on your car.

Question; how did you remove the rear clip? Did you remove the rear clip by yourself or did you have help/hoist device? I need to remove #015 rear clip and I'd like to do my work w/o aid for the neighbors (too noisy).

Curly, the back is a little awkward by myself but not heavy at all.
I have never had any help with my car yet.
it is more of a balance from one side to get it tilted back to where you can grab it from the back.

YOU CAN DOOO IT!

Tonight I worked on the car for a little while I was able to get the fastback section finished and painted on the underside.
I just did it in black to seal it.
I also worked on my new fiberglass headliner because of the choptop I had to section a little out of it and glass it back together. I know I can't leave anything
stock
I also worked on the underside of the hood to start soothing it out.
nothing exciting tonight just bodywork so no pic's yet.

PS. Clay it was nice to meet you and your fam. today for lunch.

What he said. I had my wife help me once. I didn't feel like throwing my back out. But most of the time I lift it off myself.

Now that's a Kodak moment. Next time get your wife to take a picture (if you happen to remove the rear clip again).
