Excellent....Monumental task, but will be worth the time when done!
It's a fine line between a hobby & mental illness!

Thanks guys :)
It will be a lot of work but when the new parts arrive it will start looking like a car again.
This is the tough part seeing it in this shape.

Finshed sandblasting for prep of the interior floor pan and sound deading and paint on the inside of the quarters.
Painting them now will make it much easier when it comes time to paint the trunk.
Alot more sandblasting to do but the floor can be installed.

Thanks :)
I used Speedliner bed coat and had the old panel in the booth with me to try to match the lines and heavy areas.
I think I got it pretty close.

We now have a almost installed trunk floor. Just a little more welding and moving on to the drop extentions.

And thankfully there's a company like AMD making the parts available for this! There was no AMD making quarters for our cars when we did the bodywork on my RR back in 1988...
