Your rear quaters are kinda ruff. Looks like a good start though. Whatever you do FIX that battery. Having it in the rear isnt a bad idea...just buy one of those kits that comes with everything you need. Gool luck!

Oh and I do like the Hx's!

They will look great When I'm done. I am just glad the car is White not black or red (otherwise every imperfection would stand out)

Well, body filler sticks best to bare metal or more filler, make sure you sand it good before applying more. I don't bother with primer until It feels satisfactory, then if need be I will go back.

Who did you buy that car from? I think I did this swap. It has been like 5 years though. He didnt have a header for it so I let him "borrow" my kamakazi till he got a new one. His valve cover was in worst shape then I had ever seen so I let him "borrow" mine to take some pics and get it back to me when he got one. He then sold the car like 5 days after I got it running and dropped off the face of the earth. Never heard from him again. I could look at the header and tell you if it was mine or not. That header was the **** in it's day.
