I ended up using a good buddy of mine Dwayne of Mayer's Restorations, I didn't know he could bring them in directly and subsequently found out he could, should have got them before the dollar tanked, lol.

That's good! You went with the full quarters? What else does your car need sheet metal wise? That sucks on the dollar being so low.. I think when I bought my stuff our dollar was on par and slowly dropping as I bought stuff, which was good because I pretty much bought everything AMD makes for the darts, haha

Yeah I got everything from Carlsons and Southtown NAPA. I believe both of them still carry solvent based paints, so you should be good.

looking good. I havnt been able to get back into my car. no insulation in the garage ha ha

Thanks! You need to get a heater and some insulation out in the garage! I like working on my car in the winter the most.. Less distractions and I can control the heat.

I got the upper control arms disassembled and sandblasted.. Everything on them was a fight! The rear bushings on the control arms were a nightmare since they had the extra sleeve pushed on from the backside. The one balljoint came out easy, but the other one wouldn't budge so I welded a nut on it and ran it off with the impact (I don't have the proper socket to remove them) I'm just doing one suspension piece at a time during the workweek to keep steady progress. Next are the spindles.
