Re: My RR resto project

I was lucky that this car had little rust to it. I did have tiny pin holes mainly behind the driver's side but hardly nothing behind the passenger, but there was. So, I replaced both of the rear 1/4 trunk extensions. Here, she is another shot of the car on the rotisserie and being delivered to my bo...

Re: My RR resto project

Frame connectors needed a little trimming. They're designed mainly for a E body but the floor for the B's is simmular. A little trimming here and there, place it back in, remove, a little more trimming and done. Welded it in and used "All metal" to fill in any areas as needed. Happy with the results...

Re: My RR resto project

I sure haven't posted much here but I want to, due to someone posting bogus crap on here. Hopefully, with the admins help and from members, it has been resolved for now.

You can try jimsautoparts. They have a wide array of clips and fasteners.
Places like Jim's, R/T and others get fasteners from mainly Auveco. So why not go there first and "'trim the fat" of going through a middle man?
