Rust be gone!

some templates for the patches

found previous rust repair on the car

so at the moment, my old man is helping me by cutting the rust out. once we have that completed i can get it to my house, and i can start the rest of the body work.

All the doors can be repaired except for the drivers rear. Its had the style line pushed in and cant repair it. So in need of another door!

My latest ideas after doing some research is to maybe try and sell the flat top carbs, and buy a set of Ztherapy round top su's. sounds like it will be better off in the long run. It will complete the setup when i rebuild the motor shortly.

Im also thinking i will prob get the bumpers straightened and re chromed.

next big job is cutting the rust out the wheel well, and replacing the whole section. i will put up pics

quick question... what fits on a 4 door from a coupe? does the front guards fit or bumpers?

[Laggy6]

Front bumper should but rear bumper won't, guards should fit too.

[Guest Flauski]

agreed, anything forward of windscreen will fit. This means guards and front bumper will fit.

Nothing from rear is the same.

[tez240k]

Sweet yeah that's what I thought. Cheers guys.

Just seems I can get hold of coupe parts but can't find 4 door stuff for the life of me

[Noddle]

Front bumper should but rear bumper won't, guards should fit too.

the rear bumper of my '77 4 door fitted fine onto my '73 coupe.

hmm maybe i'm wrong

[KID-K]

bumpers are the same on the coupe and sedan.

[Guest Flauski]

ew actually think they all right rear bumper will fit, but tail light panel, boot lid, stainless trim is all different

[KID-K]

Rear tail panel is also interchangeable....
