Remaking Progress in Illinois

[Mike O'Meara]

It seems like a never ending project, but progress is being made. The first shot is a year ago, and the second is today,
after the second application of high build primer. One or two more guide-coat sandings and it will be ready for the
painter and metallic silver paint. It's a '72T with sport seats, S front bumper and S trim as in the third picture,
taken about 2 years ago. What doesn't show up in the shot is a line of bubbling rust down the front fenders
and a hole in the rocker at the weld point of the rear quarter. The goal is to make it look as if you could get
a '72 with RS flares and a ducktail and S trim; basically the RS touring look without the graphics and
RS front bumper. If I do go with graphics,
they will be in purple as a nod to the car's original color.


Sorry about the first post. I'd delete it but I can't get to the edit button.

Some inspiration, with and without graphics:





RS flares and the S bumper are the best-looking combination, in my opinion.
