Had some more spare time in the garage (being retired is such a drag )
Repainted the power steering pump.
The finished passenger rear door hinge. I just sprayed some black tremclad for now, it will get proper paint when all the fabrication is completed.
Latch side on the door. The weather stripping will have to be reversed as well.
Modifications to the B pillar for the door striker. Had to relocate the door jamb light switch as well.
Getting near done on the driver's rear door.
Hinge plate getting installed on the driver's rear door.
Cleaning up the driver's A pillar.
Repainted the radiator support. Funny how the 75 is black, but the 77 was primer grey. This is paint, not just primer but I wanted to look as factory as possible, just with suicide doors :)
Started messing around with the body work, will get more serious with it once the fabrication is complete.
Chaos
And finally got my new/used 80 gallon 7.5hp compressor wired in.

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.

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