There will always be problems when you are rebuilding, but at the end the rewards are satisfactory. Keep grinding bro👍🏾👍🏾

Yeah it’s all good fam I’m enjoying the build and the process. Something new everyday!

I would get it mechanically sound b4 I do any cosmetics that way it don't get dinged up at shops

[@CarReviewsbyKJ]

Yeah you’re right about that. That’s the plan. Shops never want to be accountable when they mess things up. Always saying it comes in like that.

[@willr69420]

It's an extraordinary car. I'm really glad that you are taking this on, the car is totally worth saving. IMO you should restore the top back to vinyl as it would really make the car stand out, and with modern adhesives, sealants, and waterproofing the top will outlast the car.

[@CarReviewsbyKJ]

Thanks Will it’s definitely a project to say the least but is a solid start. Looking forward to the outcome!
