Its a very heavy looking car so I'm sure anything you do will be an improvement

Really did not like the rear bumper, even after i narrowed it, so i found a donor, and filled the rear panel gap aswell.. A little rough, but you get the idea, a lot neater i think.    |

Thanks guys, i was pretty happy with body progress, then i went to grab the chassis...... WHAT CHASSIS !!! I was so engrossed in the body i didn't do a parts check before starting, chassis is non existent, 1 inner door trim missing, and half the suspension missing, i tried to have a crack at this, but back in the box it goes, maybe one day, i will drag it out again and attempt to put it on a pro style chassis, just now at the moment.  |

That is by far my fave old ford body. Looking forward to seeing what you do with it.
