I will have a hatch in good shape and see what I have for wheels laying around.

Rear hatch with some dents and rust but not too wasted. That would b great. I'd love to borrow some wheels for the trip & it's definatly gonna need some fiddling with to get running and moving. |

having trouble starting, gotta get that fixed. do have plans to get it in and finish up. will probably drive it around for a long time with exposed welds and knarly rust. will just paint it flat black. most likely will be my winter car so finishing up is necessary. sorry no new pics right now- soon though. |

Tacked only because i don't want my vice grips stolen. it fits nice but was not easy nor close to being done. |

my complete lack of patience and desire to over achieve, make me forget that measure twice, cut once is a saying for a reason. but after this one, i will be a Jedi in the dokagon chop. must break some eggs to make this cake. and i can't wait to get both trucks from above pic in my shop for some rebeautification. can see the blue and white camper at Lichfield show father's day weekend if bell house adapter shows up. |
Got one truck done! can check out xxxOOOxxx's build thread.
