Just out of curiosity, are they installing the fenders with the inner fenders already on the car? I found it a lot easier on my T/A to bolt the inner fenders to the fenders and then install the entire assembly onto the car. Much less risk of scratching the paint on the fenders and door edges, trying to maneuver the fender around the inner fenders.

Steve,

I believe that they will be installing the fenders with the inner fenders installed. That being said, I'll be there tomorrow and I'll ask them about this. I'm not doing any of the work myself, the other insurance company is paying for all the work. I do visit on a regular basis.

Battery topper it is. The fenders are on and they look great.

Randy, I'm heading there today. I've been out of town most of the week. I hope they have the fenders and hood on.

Here’s the latest batch of photos. I took these with my Iphone, so they aren’t high resolution photos.

The first shot is of an original RS endure nose, it turned out very nice. The front header panel hasn’t been buffed out or striped yet, the stripe will be the last thing done after everything is aliened. The doors open nicely and the engine compartment is beautiful.

Both headlight bezels were damaged and they ordered new ones. Fortunately, there aren’t going to be many reproduction pieces used.

It’s a car again, I love it.

The sheet metal is on, but nothing is really lined up yet as they’re waiting on braces and supports that were damaged. Overall, it looks good and the car starts and the solid lifter LT1 sounds great.
