That's awesome! I love those "beater" cars. It gives you an excuse to go nuts with the modifications because you don't have to worry about the restoration hassles.
Sounds like you've got a larger budget than I do, so keep posting as you go. It seems like yesterday that I was looking at my car's missing front end.

I haven't really thought about that yet...I just finished fitting the trunk patch tonight though. I will prolly consider that. It's a good idea. Thanks.

Here is some of the things I have done so far...Out with the old...in with the new!!! (fitting as New Years is on it's way!)

So here are some pics of the trunk (old and new with the pan patch mocked up)

More pics...

Here is the damage that I did tonight... I finished removing the old tail pan and mocked up the new one... nevermind the drill on the deck lid...I needed it there to hold it down so I could get the lid aligned...
