The only blah blah blah I see is the 69 Camaro on the lift.

Flip top gas cap recess has been grafted in, mini tubs are in progress, all of the floor and fender bracing has been fully welded.
Body work is getting ready to get a polyester glaze and some additional block sanding.

Mine too I wont say how long. I am going back together though body work slows me down, and I jump back and forth between body mechanical electrical etc.

My order of operations is skewed but its going back together is all I know.
 
Body has first coat of poly getting ready to block sand and prep for another coat

I wonder ..in what ballpark this will cost.

Nice color.
I'm for one am happy to see you get this car back to 'like new'.. but better.

Thanks for sharing.
 
We decided to apply a bed liner with color mixed in on the underside and trunk. The mini Tubs opens up the rear wheel wells nicely
