a little filler. I will probably have to replace the doorskin, and hopefully not the entire door.. It's got a lot of problems that I don't want to get into right now.. the rest of the car has to be stripped and repaired..... probably next winters work. But for right now it's getting patched and epoxied for summer so I can still drive it....

Nice work Jerry-meister. The Sport will be going through a lot of that soon enough.....again. Ont the vert, you're in no hurry, and every little thing that you do is still progress. Again, nice work.

I'm also interested to see what it will look like too. Mainly the lack of rust will be a huge change in looks right off the start.

No, the Sport is plenty right now. Now, if I run across an '87 or '88 somewhere locally, I'd take one for my boy. He'll need a car next year.

Jerry, you should make me a set of subframe connectors that can be welded in, charge me some money, and then send them to me for the Sport.
