That's the easy part! Take plenty of pictures and it goes back together much easier.  That fender looks to be in great shape.

Spending time with my grandkids gets in the way of finishing my car but I don't regret it!

Looks like you have some great metal to work with!  Keep us updated and we'll try to keep you motivated!

Thanks for the update.....One thing I did notice....You've got a mighty comfortable looking chair in the background. I hope that's just for your guests. 8)

The chair is for the 52 inch tv in the shop. Gotta what the car shows, overhaulin, counting cars, car chasers, etc.

Not only a comfy chair but there is some adult beverage cans on the table. A man gets thirsty out in the shop.

It's starting to come together. Is that the stock seat frame?

Looks great!!! I don't know how some guys are able to move so fast. Keep the pictures coming.
Tighten it up til it strips, then back it off a quarter turn

Looking great!  Glad to see some progress.

If you need any 4.3 parts (free)...I still have a rat pack collection of used parts for them....from my Astro van days.   Always liked that engine...
