If you need me to help with the hood,....I can whip up a really cool looking idea in steel,..weld it on, warp the hell out of it, cut it back off, then do that over and over for months.
Whatdya think?

What's not to like Dave?Here's with it's new emblem. I like it.
Who could possibly have a problem with that?
Beautiful! Memories of old jingles and "have you driven a Ford lately?" are popping into my head.Here's with it's new emblem. I like it.
Where exactly are you keeping all of these freshly painted pieces?Four eyed again, got the dividers shot today and riveted back in.
What facility, address, password to the gate, and a copy of the key please......

Here's my "new" rear bumper. She's a honey!
This is the best one i can find, btw. There doesn't seem to be an aftermarket manufacturer of the '79-'84 rear bumpers. Oh well, i've got an idea on how to fix it.
Behold the good bumper:

Looks rough Dave.. I have no doubts to your abilities-but that looks like it's gonna be some work lolHere's my "new" rear bumper. She's a honey!

Edit: This is the last part you spray before Robby comes home right?
Man, crazy that you can fix that rear bumper. I would have thrown that away if I had it laying around.
Close brother, got to get the hood back from the sand blasters too. I'll get these done, then i grab the driver's door off Robby and then the game will be on!
I know what you mean Nick, these bumpers are hard to come by though. I'm kind of stuck. I can fix this though, it looks worse than it really is.
Ya know buddy, there is a big difference between us, and that is that you know the trade secrets and possess the skill to fix that, and I do not. I will be interested in watching you work your magic, and have no doubt you will get it right.
