Fender is back on and 99% body work finished, I have one same body line area I am not satisfied with yet but close. I did use a small bit of filler in top front corner where there is a low spot and you cannot get to it without cutting head light bucket out.
The front suspension is really bad so I think I will take a break from body work let my hands heal and fix this next.
Know any good suspension shops in your area?

I dunno
Looks awesome!! beware, the body lines are so subtle between the rear window and fender well they are hard to block in and get them spot on. I have mastered body lines and I could not get these perfect... or I got in a hurry;-)
Got a little time in on Juniors right front fender, it is stripped and primed and only found one small ding in front so that was a relief after the other side mess. They bondo over the rocker trim holes so I knocked those out and now have to maybe unbolt bottom part of fender to get chunks out, I hate leaving that in there as it would probably plug drains.
And I picked out a 1973 3.23 pumpkin for the 8 3/4 swap and getting it cleaned up, as you can see the before shot it has a nice protective layer of grease on it. I still need to purchase axles next, I think I will buy new ones when I can afford it.

Thanks CD
Some stuff is nice covered with grease and oil, no rust!
I razor bladed off all the blue on LR now so I can see what I have back there. It is real easy to do especially when old paint job was poorly prepped.
Just the one scrape/dent but nice and solid metal.
