Looking great. I assume that's epoxy primer? WHat brand rotissery (SP) is that? How do you like it? Any reason you didn't remover the cowl (what ever the panel is between the windshield and firewall) since you were blasting/priming?

This round of blasting, was the second time.. primarily to clean up roof supports and some spots that were flash rusted from touching certain areas. the roof was not intended to be replaced when we blasted the first time, so the skin was still on. EDP coating was all removed from new sheet metal with DA's. So.. the upper cowl was already blasted when the car was just a roof and A-B pillars. I didn't post any of those pics, as there are plenty of those floating around.

GReat work. I'm glad to see the rotissory pic. W/O 1/4s; roof and tail panel. I want to do this to my bros 70 Cam. and I figured I'd have to stiffen it before.
What did you line the inside of the 1/4 with? It kinda looks like truck bed liner.

Most would comment that it was not a good idea.....but all 165 lbs of me was also sitting in it on the rotisserie. LOL....Its solid! all our alignment screws lined right back up when i was welding on quarters and roof.
The coating inside the quarters is plain old rattle can rubberized undercoating. Dust coat. on top of epoxy primer.

updates
Fitting trunk..need some work, but not bad. Mods for back seat, as well as modeling interior quarter trim for fabrication in 5th gen styling. The package tray will be modded to recline the seat back another 3". Last pic is me sitting in the back seat!

Thanks as always Jimbo! If we weren't doing it ourselves, it wouldn't be cost effective, and would most likely have to settle for what's off the shelf aftermarket wise..that in most cases are 70% solutions with many compatibly gaps. Objectives still remain...a cool, reliable, serviceable, driver!
