37 coupster Top Doorslammer

some of you old timers of the site may remember this, it's sat untouched pretty much all of the last 10 years. Decided a couple weeks back that this year its going to get done. Starting today in fact.
hardest part is going to be fitting a front suspension under there

cheers John , got a bit more done, only a couple more hrs to go I think as everything left to do other than clearing over the decals is already made and ready to go on.
thats 4 hrs out of the booth after clearing, no polishing.
