Trying to wrap this thing up.
Owner doesn't want a "show car" so this thing won't get the complete cut and buff I am used to doing because of the amount of time it takes.

Rear window installed:

Truck came back for some paint fixes.
The owner had covered the truck with a tarp and the buckle came loose and chipped the hood and put scratches in the driver's door. Tailgate also was damaged because he put a flag pole in the bed of the truck and it leaned on the tailgate and rubbed off the paint. Got everything fixed. Buffed to match and ready to go home. 1968 Coronet R/T

419 hours. There was a lot of metal work to be done. Plus the awful job of stripping 3/8" thick polyester primer from most of the body.
