The front clip stuff is not that difficult, the main challenge will be getting the fenders lined up. Get yourself some body shims, they are used to make the vertical adjustments. The rear quarter panels will require a spot weld cutter http://www.supermotors.net/clubs/superford...stry/4970/19525 to cut around the body welds. I am attaching a link to a write up for doing the quarter panels on a 1986 FSB http://www.supermotors.net/clubs/superford...stry/4970/19605 . The task should be similar to what you will be doing on yours.

Also a link to a great product I just started using last year for preparing bare metal prior to painting called Picklex 20 http://autobodystore.net/Merchant2/merchan...egory_Code=RCAC

Good luck,

:)>-
