steve if i may suggest...have joe cut the center part you need, that should save on some of the cost to ship and would be a smaller package too! besides that would give joe an excuse to cut something else up LOL

But that would require Joe to have to cut something.  He would need to go out and purchase, oh I don't know, something like a sawzall, or a cutting torch, or something.  Do you think Joe could handle cutting something up like this???  Tongue

Oh yes, I deserve the ribbing, as that reputation is well-earned. I regret cutting up a couple of them now, specifically the very solid '73 Sportroof I bought as a package deal with a '72 CJ Formal. At the time, I had the 4 speed Sportroof, so I didn't need another. Happily, I still have it...in pieces. Like Humpty Dumpty, though, it's not easily put back together again.

Just after it's first bath, it looked a lot better than it actually was, but I knew that and am up for the challenge. I'vebeen working on removing the rust from all the panels and collecting parts.

Casey, you may want to start up a thread about your car in the Project section...I'm sure plenty of us would love to see your continuing progress.

Also...you can post multiple pics in one post.

Thanks for the complement on the quarter panel Johnny, I worked really hard on it, cut it off a parts car that I have, so there was even a lot of careful work involved in that, but I'm so happy I went to the effort.

Okay, could not figure out how to move this, so I just started all over in the "project updates" section. Thankfully I hadn't posted too much. Thanks guys for the comments and suggestions, I hope you will visit my other post "75 gran torino "soft" restoration (copper head)" I will be posting all future updates over there.
