Restoration Pics

Below are a series of pictures , as I "SLOWLY" start the restoration. I will attempt to post new pics as I do the different tasks . I will also try to remember to take before , during ,and after pics . I am also attempting to use as little body filler as possible . So far, I have been able to replace rusted metal with new , and only using filler to smooth out my "chicken scratches" (I'm not the best welder in town) As , you can plainly see.And yes , I know it would be easier to just replace the fender , but I haven't found a good one that I can afford. This is a VERY LOW BUDGET restoration.

UPDATE 10/21/04

I haven't taken any pictures yet, But I just got a new glass installed in the back window today. The interior will finally be sealed up & protected from the rain and washings.
