Here are some pics of our project. So far, I have pretty much disassembled the whole car, all that is left are the brake lines, fuel line, exhaust and pedals. The plan is to weld in a new front passenger frame rail, all new engine compartment with exception to shock towers as they are solid, new floors, floor supports, tail panel, rear quarters and then interior. Cowl needs repair also. Here are some pics of some of the damaged areas. I will keep you posted and will need advice moving forward, I'm sure. Looking at the pic of the frame, is there any way to patch rather than replace the whole thing? It is rusted right through. I can get more pics if you like. Thanks.

Thanks for the inspiration, your car turned out awesome. Would you replace the front rail or patch with some T-stock or something?

The one in the pic stayed in, the passenger's side was replaced. As you know, this is why it is so important to get everything apart so you can see what is going on inside the places that can not be seen.

Keep at it!

Get her cleaned up and patch it unless you are going to do the "show car" deal. (I can hear the objections on this one so everyone put up some suggestions).
