65 Dart Wagon Conversion to a Sedan Delivery

Got a bit accomplished yesterday - bent some 1/8th inch flat stock, fabricated and welded the front and both side mounts to a tunnel support for a buddy seat AKA an armrest. The buddy seat is from a 68 B Body and fits just fine between the 66 narrow buckets

With me assisting my bodyman friend, got a lot accomplished - got the passenger side top inner panel spot welded in place, welds ground on both the driver and passenger top inner panel and a skim coat of filler applied and sanded over each weld. you can see way in the back where i need to fabricate the compound curve end panel.

I’m a pretty fair metal fabricator So got the driver’s side extreme rear panel At the D pillar bent on an inside curve, fitted, cut out for the rear cargo lights (which will be a pair of 64/66 side courtesy lights) and welded in place. We’ll start on the passenger extreme rear panel tomorrow.
