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.
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.

[quote=67r/t4speeder]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.
