Its home :drunks: :hangloose: No rust holes that I could find, some areas were resprayed but almost no bodyfiller. Everything is straight, only the dash was cut up to fit a modern radio. Looks like the original engine as well, will see about that. This thing is a gem :D

Some bodyfiller found, twice this size....
