Man, who ever owned this before pretty much half ars everything they tried to do.. the grill was a mess, flaking all over the place.

so i painted it black today.

Then i pulled the sticky bus driver steering wheel out and replaced it with a seemingly golf cart sized grant steering wheel, this will do until i can buy a nicer one. :)

Next plans are, fixing the door locks, they are kinda sketchy.
Painting the rockers black, you can see where they painted them white and
did a horrible job i might add. then i might tackle the rust.

Lots of ideas and other stuff to come!

anyways i think it turned out allright, a 100 times better than what it was before, im thinking that after i fix the rust on the fenders i will have it painted professionally from the crease down, or just have it all done black.

Have a nice evening folks!
