Like I said, you guys are welcome over anytime. If the garage doors are open come on in!


This weekends installment;


I repaired the rocker in two separate patches. You can see the forward one welded up and the rear one folded down.


After all the hammer and dolly work was done I coated the entire inside of the rocker with Krown.



All welded up waiting for the skim coat of filler.



Sanded the roof down to bare metal and is now coated with an etch primer.


And most of the firewall is also coated with etch primer.



After the rocker gets finished the next job will be the suicide door hinges!

You're really making me miss the '78 Town Coupe I had 30+ years ago.

They were huge! My dad had one. 👍

Absolutely LOVE this build diary. Read the whole thing top to bottom! Can't wait to see the fully finished project. I sold my Road Runner convertible a while back and now I'm looking for a 1977 or 76 LTC to resto-mod and drive wheels off of! Also following you over at the Lincoln forum.
