ok so....
 
Been a very long time since ive added to this thread. Got alot of updates.

First, i wont be able finish it at school this year. Since im graduating this year, ill be going to the same tech school as an adult student. I get two pluses out of that, the car gets done, and they give me full certification in auto body. I only need 2 1/2 years of that class, two years are gone, only need another 1/2, so i have to pay $1500 for that half year. Its not to bad considering other schools. BUT! back on topic, since i dont have time this school year, ill be towing it home to finish most of the big rust work, like the trunk floor needs to be replaced, same with the floor boards, and i need to fix the steering. You guys remember it being all white and more rusty. well heres alot of pics.

the old hood was rusted,
