Last time I worked on it my friend mike and I removed the aftermarket rear apron, the extra gas tank in the rear seat, Both cb whip mounts, cb radio, the aftermarket seat, the wooden built in rear storage cabinet, and the motor. My metal guy is working on the car and will be done fairly soon. Thanks for the interest. :wink:

Update,without pics. :roll:
Got the Wolfparts rear bumper mounts and pertaining sheet metal in Monday. Got both installed today. So the rear of my car is no longer baja. This week we will work on the front sheet metal. Got a nice donor clip from MJMarkham and should have the needed sheetmetal from it cut off and grafted this coming Sunday. My friend that has two hebs and other award winning cars (30 years in the hobby) Said its the nicest and most solid Oval he's ever seen. Considering it was lightly baja'd of course. Will post pics Monday.

Here is a pic of the sheetmetal from Wolf. Top quality worth every penny of 250 (for the pair) shipped to my door......
