... at a friend's body shop. Finally getting that right rear 1/4, front bumper, and chin spoiler fixed.
Won't be a show car, but it will look better than it did, just in time for cruising.

Body work is still not completed, but I'm not in a big hurry.
I ended up buying a new GM front bumper cover, stripping the chin spoiler, and stripping a pair of power mirrors I have been saving for this car. They will paint these parts and install the front cover and spoiler, I'll install the mirrors.
The shop will be repairing the right rear quarter where I backed into another car.
They talked me into stripping and refinishing the rear bumper too.
Once I get the car back, I'll color sand the sides of the car and the new paint. Someone has already color sanded the top surfaces.
I'm still staying patient, just can't wait to get it back.

The driver's seat was destroyed when I bought the car. Found a NICE red leather interior in an '87 Berlinetta at my favorite junk yard. Bought the passenger seat for $50, took the cover to an interior shop where they used what they could and installed it on the driver's seat.
Maybe someone will repop them in 10 years.
