My first car was a 67 fastback with 390. But I have got to ask, ranchero?????

At least it is not an El camino lol! No in fact that was our first american car with my brother we bought, and it was the only one that was in our price in France we had a small budget and there are not many good deal with old cars out there. So first american car for both of us small price usefull car so we bought it.
But now we want to sell it and we are looking for a 65 satellite or 65 belvédère or a 67 coronet. Mopar or no car!

 

[quikbird]

all right, and there we see the proper evolution in car collecting to enlightenment of true mopar status.

 

[Sixtynine_Bird]

Exactly! We are in a progressive evolution! ;)

here it is! Christmas time! lol
We receive a lot of parts and we are very excited about that!
We have got all the rear component, quarters, wheel housing, trunk floor with extension, passenger fender, some performance part like a new Kmember from QA1, tie road sleeves from PST (no pics for that sorry), wildwood disc brakes, magnum force adaptor for coil spring on the front, some parts to complete the car like windshield gaskets, a modern fuse box, and a lot more.
Just got a few pic of the whole package.









Here a couple of pics that I took with my cell phone

Nice work

 

[quikbird]

even when they have bills attached, it is ALWAYS fun to open car part boxes!!!

 

[Sixtynine_Bird]

You're damn right!!!! It was really funny!

Hello everyone! I just looked at my last post and it was a long time ago. I kinda fall asleep ^^ We did a good progress since the last pics! I'm going to post some during the week and you guys will be able to let me know what you think of it ;)

Now let see what is done:
Doors are finished, driver side fender done too, trunk lid done, the front end is finally finished and the car is now under an epoxy coating
We also remove the trunk floor panel and we are now on the tail of the car removing the panel behind the rear bumper (sorry I do not remember the names of those) thus we'll be able to present the new trunk floor. Before that we have to make some little repairs on the frame rails and then it'll be good.
See you soon!

[Sixtynine_Bird]

Thanks guys! For sure it is a lot done by now but we are far from the end lol ^^

You're right quickbird sometimes it is a bit tight in our garage we can't pass around the car we have to push it on one side to pass over, but now she is on jack stands so she will not move till the trunk floor is done!

Did you put a coat of sealer on the metal before any filler? If so what brand are you using?
