I gotta cut the humps on the front, and weld in flat-plate so the front seats fit as low as possible...and fab the rear mounts for the bench.

then to the body shop.... soon after to the upholstery shop (get everything wrapped in Alcantara suede)....then the audio shop... the bumpers and headers will get sent to the powdercoating shop!

Shop, Shop, SHoP till u drop!!

I want that front clip! I have been wanting to put the early clip on my '86 for years, ever sense I lost my '76. If you wanna move that entire clip off the '79, just let me know. I'd be happy to come and get it from ya
