So, who ever has that very straight, rust free body now, you can cuss at me for drilling all of those little holes around the roof, LOL. Yes, even the aluminum rear doors were nice (well at least they were over fourty years ago).
Nice job on the body work.
I saw last night on fb about John. The world sure lost a great one. I'm going to miss his humor, advice, and perspective from another portion of the world. Rest in Peace Johnboy.
