Just got it back yesterday from the body shop. I still need give it a good polish as they are paint guys, not detail guys and I can see swirl marks.

Thanks. :)

Yep, I'm doing the suspension next. I'm going to drop all the metal bits and powdercoat them black and then redo the undercoating using truck bed liner.


Nice! Nice view too:)

Yeah, it looks great here. Too bad I'm only a renter here.

Hehe, yeah. I won't be able to fly under the radar anymore.

Yeah, I know. I need to find a way to get that fixed but I might not be a way to get that flush as it was tat way before I took it in.

That looks amazing! Turned out really nice. I think the paint looks better than factory from what I could tell. How did you get the side moldings to look so good btw? They look new.

He, that was going to my first question! Can you even get them new anymore?

All the moldings are new. I'm not sure if you can get all the small ones still but the big ones on the door are NS1. So, I ordered the standard molding and they painted all of them the stock paint code and the Turbo GTC were reproduction decals we had made. The decals aren't perfect though.

Also, for reference here's my old LeBaron with the factory red vs the new:

Thanks Tony. :)

BTW, I'll be sending you a MO on Monday for the overhead console. I thinking of recovering it in black suede along with the headliner and visors.

Looking great. I was thinking of shaving the antenna on mine too. Do you have any kind of antenna now hidden elsewhere?

The antenna was completely removed and I have no plans to put another one in anywhere. I don't listen to the radio anymore.
