The hood looks great! Did you do it yourself or have someone in the family help?

Looks like your doing a good job at fixing the damage, I'm surprised that little fender-bender cracked the windshield.

PS. Whats up with the household-style three prong power cord sticking out the end of the fender in the one pic?

That's for the block heater. Those of us that live in the north use those.. LOL As for the windshield, yeah, I was surprised too... But it was.

Thanks guys. Again I am using the family body painter. Though I have done everything but the paint. Mon/Tue I will be assembling and have it back together.

More when its done.

Almost done. Front end is assembled, now to get the windshield replaced.

Few things to tweak but it will work.

Installed new tires today..... 400 bucks balanced and mounted. Bridgestone's. Nothing special, but decent.

Last weekend I installed new Bosch Iridium plugs and Bosch spark wires. Good thing too. 180 thousand miles and it was still on the original OEM plugs and wires.

Certainly runs better now. Gap had worn out to 70-80 thousands, was supposed to be 50. HA. And at least 2 plugs were bubbling at the threads while the engine ran, never even noticed that till I had the front end off and more light on the subject during the repair. Yikes. And none of the plugs were really tight either. Oh well, its fixed now.
