half is actually from my '89- 2 fenders/hood/front bumper/deck lid
Pass door was also replaced
they didn't see the rear blinker thing and the ding strip so I'll get those in a few days with some touch up paint for the future.
idk what happened to the front pass gfx, it fell off a little, I just need to push it back in and screw the side piece on.
some things I still need to do:
tint windows
new carpet
new headliner
put interior back together/mostly from my 89
put exterior back together
install hedders/y-pipe/cat-delete pipe/exhaust tips
install new radio/old amp/old subs/new front speakers

After I was finished with the bodywork, I took it to maaco on 38th and pine. I had it in epoxy primer and I wanted to shoot the color myself but I don't have any time between school and work, I think it might be a week or more before I get a chance to install the weatherstripping.

IF you go there, he is a real good talker. I called him out on how long the body work would actually take and then everything I added was half price! lol They did a pretty good job on this one, no overspray anywhere, and I haven't found any runs or sags. I sprayed my door jams myself to be cheap but they cleaned that up and sprayed my door jams for free too.
When I picked it up, there was a blue camaro parked next to it. It looked like it was painted too but with no body work. They are a cheap business so you gotta TELL them exactly what you want and do everything else yourself. but you still cant beat the price.

they wont do it for free. the work order doesnt get passed around much i dont think so since i had my door panels off and the interrior out they probably figured i paid for it.
that front end has been painted by maaco 3 times in the last two years.. lol
