hey hows it goin,
just wanted to let everyone know that after 2 weeks of some serious sanding i primed my car black, and wow! what a difference it made. Im so happy , it looks half decent now and puts me in a mental state of now just going to get the engine running cause before i was all worried bout my body, but now i would drive it like it is, of course if it could be driven. but thats besides the point! Anyways if i didnt bore u enough already im hoping to take sme pics and put them on a web page so u guys can take a look.

But now onto another subject im still struggling wth my taillight panel. I want to remove it so i can put the new one on. If anyone could explain it to me in detail that would be most helpful. Thx Mike

P.S. I think this is the longest post ive ever written! hehe

If you look in the Classic form, someone asked that very question, and I posted explicit instructions.

I think I'd get the Osbone manuals and find the spot welds and use a cutter to start. Maybe weld a temp brace to hold the rear togather. Have fun. I am still condemplating my cowl replacement?!
