Any chance you're going back to original and want to sell that rear wing?

[RACEBUICKS]

So where is the rouigh parts:laugh: Looks lie someone was Master Plastic applicator:Dou:
Kind of looks like the Kokomo project

[BadBrad]

First time I've ever seen media blasting where a bowling ball might be the media.

[RACEBUICKS]

It gets better...or not

[Doo Wop]

"Scary stuff, eh kids?"

[BUICKRAT]

Boy, I sure hope the owner has deeeeep pockets. You have your work cut out for you!

How thick was that putty laid on? Seems someone couldn't be bothered to do the finishing the right way.

Some very interesting patch panels in the roof as well. Exactly how are those sheets held in place?

That kind of crap has got to annoy you like no other when it rolls in. I'm sure you love restoring these cars, but dealing with problems/ messes otehrs have created must get old real fast.

[Houndogforever]

those sheets look like sound deaden from the picture, but I'm probably wrong. Your front windshield channel pretty much looks to be in the same shape mine was in.

[RACEBUICKS]

nope they are sheets of alunimum rivited to the roof to keep the putty from drooling thru the rust holes

[RACEBUICKS]

Here ya go. Its maybe not as bad as I thought but yet yea it is...

[mrolds69]

Good deal Michael, save another one! Good luck w/ the nose lining up. If those noses have been tweaked at all, they can be very tough to align. Confidence is high you can do it, though........
