The day it came home.
Later that week, it got a quick clean up.
Then, thanks to Smooth it got some rust free doors.
Then the work began on them.
Mirrors before:
Mirrors after.
Up next were the door belt molding.

After:
Next up, were the doors. They just had a few small dings.
After, ready for final prep and paint:
Again, thanks to Smooth the color has been chosen.
Also, the motor has started to take shape. I just cant figure where to put the push rods..... A rotating assembly should be ordered with in the next few months. I'm in no hurry to get it swapped. If it gets painted and such by spring. Ill just throw a cheap Windsor or 302 in there, just to drive it again. Also, thanks to Saso for hooking me up on a much needed swap item. I have a Team Z K member and control arms laying around.
As for now, that's all that has been done. I need to track down new weather stripping for the doors, swap lock cylinders over, and put them on. Then I can start the rest of the body work and get it painted.
