Great transformation. Nice job on the interior - what material did you use? Excited to see the pictures after paint!

Re: WELL HERE'S PARTS AND PIECES OF MY 73
I like the wood jig for rotating the body. Pretty low tech but effective means to keep everything nailed down while you're flipping the tub.

I used the even lower tech jig of 2 tires on the floor and leaning against the wall.

Re: WELL HERE'S PARTS AND PIECES OF MY 73
Nice work! What type of heater is that you have in your garage? I've been looking to do something similar. Thanks!

Great color choices 777. It will be exciting to see the final product. Exciting that another member is using their paint booth.

Mike, what the price range for the six point roll cage you installed? Is there someone locally that offers them? Thanks for your input.
