Its Mj Finished for now.............needs a battery, and upper rad/hose............ Its not 100% perfect, and being done back in the early 70s! i am glad i was able to to do what i could with it......... Not a show contender but its perfect for the display case....... found out the the body was tweaked a tad and wouldnt sit sqaure on the chassis, so i drilled out the rad support and inside the bucket pocket, and inserted straight pins that i cut off flush. (which wont be seen) and that fitxed it for now...............OH and the glass popped lose so thats why it has a cloths pin on it will wait qa day or two before i take it back off......

Not a bad looking car, MJ. Tire detail is great ! Clothspin gives it some character.
