With the right materials and skills, glass can be made to look like rusted metal. There is magic in patinas these days. The movie art departments and set industries had some rather keen tricks back in the 90's.

I used to be on another popular Mopar site where I revealed a books worth of lightweight tricks that can be applied to almost anything, especially an early Mopar B-body.
You should look into hogging out the headlight buckets up front and the various misc screws, bolts and nuts in alu-me-ni-um as the British pronounce it. Can save several more pounds for that front end.

Well I finally got the paint right. Stripped the fenders after three paints. I decided to do the hood and cowl the forth time with the thought of painting the whole car if it didnt match. It didnt and I didnt like the color.

Now the fifth paint and finally got it right. The color? What I thought it was the first time. Mopar PR4 flame red. What a giant pain in the ***.

Have couple more trim pieces to put on and new lettering coming and shes done.

If you don't mind me asking, was this a four door conversion at one time?
That rear quarter under the window looks a little long to my eye.

Been called crazy because some of the things I do while others said 'cool'. Used to have a catalog of nylon and plastic fasteners plus anything that doesn't get removed very often gets tack welded. And yes, tacks are used where they are easily accessible. Problem is the time spent on doing things like that....
