Looking forward to seeing it finished Joel. I'm finally getting around to my FM3 340 4-speed swinger. I have over 300 pictures of it so far and plan on sending you a CD once it's done. Hopefully by next spring...

My bodyshop is on the slow side, so work is progressing! The AMD right side rocker arrived yesterday.

I got a t-shirt as well that year - light gray with a V2 Swinger on the front. I think I still have it, but it may have been relegated to the archive-drawer! Still have several issues of Scat Chat as well!
 
Hey Joel, 71 Ca special is one of my favorite Mopars! I'm looking forward to seeing this at Papas Doge or Ralph's rapid transit at Kizls.
Here's my Scamp

Thursday work. This was a NOS red oxide quarter panel. Took all day to install! The drivers side was a gray primer NOS quarter panel and it went on in a few hours! If I recall correctly, gray is first run metal, then black and then red oxide. The press dies are best for gray metal.

Love your motivation..!! No looking back now...!! Nice work!! Swingn’.
 
I hope you all understand that all this body work is being done at a professional body shop! I am not a body man! I supply him quality parts and pay by the hour.
I work 40-50 hours per week to pay for this!
