The pan came out great. Very nice job. 
The body doesn't look too bad, and should be easy compared to the pan.

You haven't seen nothing yet. Once you start to put the body on the pan, the real work will begin.

Great job in getting after those spots. I replaced both rearward sides of my square as they were both roached pretty bad. Keep at it as you're doing great work there. Look forward to your next set of pics!

Reminds of both my T-34, and my 71 Notch. Both of them were pretty bad in those areas.

Thanks, My Son is The Fab guy.
The next steps is tackling the heater channel on the passenger side
I hunted down a 66 Heater channel. It was close but not an exact match.
so it took some modifications to make the piece work.

Apparently the PO really liked Swiss cheese .
It took a while to find the patch pieces to fix the holes.
I drove to reedsport oregon. to find the parts . some patches needed to be 65 and earler .

Very nice.  Reminds of going to Illinois to get the rear section from Doug. I also picked up a windshield while I was there. Sometimes you do what you have to.
