Well Luis, as you can probably tell from my posts and questions to you I am pretty much going through everything at this point. Not planning to replace the front fenders, though they do have a spot of rust down low on the rocker at the seam.
You could say it is getting the "Luis" treatment to a somewhat lesser degree. Interior going from Blue to Red with perforated leather inserts where the pattern now lives on seats and door panels. Engine will be fitted with MS. The rest is getting painted/plated/powder coated.
Which, buy the way Luis, leads me to the question: where did you find the replacement parts for the power steering pump (seals and such)?
As for fun...I call this Type2 fun: things that are fun AFTER you do them.

Amazing...they are twins.
I had the disadvantage of having the complete undercarriage and wheel wells sprayed with rubber undercoating. Spent the last two nights on my back with a scraper and propane torch getting that junk off. Yours looks a little cleaner to begin with.
Good luck.

Oof, that's dedication, especially where you are this time of year.
I got very lucky with mine.
In the front right now it is just a 2x10 bolted to the chassis where the subframe bolts up and two 10" caster wheels bolted on.
I am building a dolly with four 10" casters mounted on two 5' long 2x10 planks (2 wheels each), that are connected to each other with 6' long 2x4 boards. Will send a pic when it is done but basically a simple dolly with 4 wheels to set the body onto.

awesome, thanks for the info!
