And here it is "After" Gone from a total heap to about a 15-footer / driver. Inside 15 feet you can see dents, dings, bodywork, orangepeel, bugs in the paint.....but I love it none the less. Two full years in the making and lots of hurdles. I can actually say I am done with the big stuff.......until I break something.

I almost forgot how bad it was when you bought it!! Looks so good man! And the hood looks great, what a deal you scored.
made me laugh out loud. Well put. Looking back at the before photos I cannot believe I paid anything for that hunk of crap. It ran and drove, 79k 350 in it. Paid $350. Dont ask whats i have into it now.
Looks super sharp, Ken.:kodak: First '72 I remember seeing with black bumpers, looks much better on your car than what I would have imagined. My bumpers are painted black as well out of necessity, as they were pretty far gone. Not sure how they will look on a yellow car though, may give it a bit of a striped bumblebee look. o No:
