Here are a few new pics. Please disreguard the mess my shop it is also the familys garage and life and other projects tent to clutter it up. Just need to get bumper brackets blasted and painted for front. next is getting the dash in so i can get windshield in and more interior done.

Hey i'm not dead and neither is the project just hard to find any time to work on it. It drove out of the garage on its own for the first time so figured i should through up the latest pic. lots of little stuff left but realy helps to keep the motivation up. working on the dash and gages right now then on to the rest of the interior.

I see your wheels have changed. Looks like you're nearly done! Must be a good feeling.

Wheels were a score from mopars in the park this summer. (Big Diff as far as i am concerned) Added 275-60-15 tires in rear and used the matching skinnys i already had in the front. They are 15's in the rear and 14's in front. At the rate me and my check book are going should be on the road in the spring. lots of nickle and dime stuff. Bigest expense left is rechroming bumpers and windshield.

Love the color, I am so itching for a old school Mopar right now.

Ok I got the wiring almost completly finished, dash and switches cleaned up and working and the headliner in. just need to install the windshield, finish dash and put in interior. Then i can take it down the road and make sure everything works. Still have some things to finish to get it how i want it but the end is a lot closer if all goes well I should be driving it next spring.

Hey guys i just redid the tops of the qtrs and trunk extension panel ( the one between the glass and the trunk lid? ) and was wondering how the seam was finished factory. I am going to use 3m 2 part seam sealer but just wondering how the factory bead looked? could any one snap me a pic for reference going to spray it in the am and need to seam seal it before we spray just want a nice clean factory looking seam. Thanks again sorry no pics but will try to post some pics and updates after i get it finished in color.

[Photon440]

That is going to look real sharp. I like everything I see!

Hey, that looks great! Awesome work!

 

[Nsane]

Yes it is b5. No it has not been put together and on the road in 15+ years. I have owned it for almost 5 and am determined to have it on road soon.

Ok spen the weekend working on the car. Got the brakes done, shocks in and hood preped and painted. put the hood and deck back on this morning before work and just had to pull it out to see it in the sun. Sorry it is really dirty now i am trying to figure out the tail light extensions and lights as i did not take the car apart. I cant wait to get the glass in so i can buz around the block this has been a 4 1/2 year journey for something that i could do in a year when i was younger. Wife kids and life will do that but i would give up every thing for them.
