It does look to be a good start; you aren't tanking the other shell are you?

That shell still looks pretty good.....and....I wonder how a trailer made with the back half of a GT would function........

That shell looks better than almost EVERY car I start with.

Which one had the flag on the roof?

What a sad end to what looks like a very good car / shell.
I hope it goes to someone who'll used it as is.

Only fitting that you took all of the "green grass on the right side of the fence" and put it into the BRG GT!

The red car is really pretty bad. Alot of bondo and a tweaked frame. There is alot of rust through in the rear quarter windo areas. Believe me, I wouldn't junk anything useable. It is going t the crusher unless someone comes over with a trailer to get it. FREE!

That shell looks better than most of the cars I've driven.

Paul's GT now resides in my garage. Had it out for a tour around the subdivision Sunday and ran OK. I'm still trying to finish up the resto of the 77 and when its finished I am going to freshen up the GT. And yes the plans are to put the flag back.

Hi there Jon. Glad to hear you are driving her around. Yes! The flag on the roof got sooo much attention. I loved it. Tell her hi for me!
