Looks fantastic in colour.
It might be an illusion, but it looks like there isn't a lot of metal holding the A pillar to the front of the car. Then again it's probably similar on a lot of cars.

F Body’s are completely doubled roof design,
The front up rights don’t have a big section but there’s a lot of metal in them, most of which is 2mm U section
And there’s a full front and rear bridge, all round the glass

How one would survive a hard roll heaven knows
I certainly don’t want to find out !

The turds home now and all in colour thank goodness!
Been a slog but the worst is behind me now and I’ll start the enjoyable process soon, but having a couple of weeks off before I get going again!

Need to get my motor rebuild underway,
Absolutely zero chance of new main bearings so I’ll have to go the new crankshaft route!
