Just wanting to post progress on my MKII restoration, work will probibly go slow because I'm a poor college student…well I guess I’ll start with some background on the car. I bought her with a blown 5SFE, the body looked good, except for some minor accident damage. The previous owner told me that a minivan rolled up the driver’s side in a parking lot, which was consistant with the body damage. So enough with the chit-chat…here’s some pics

I don’t really have any pictures of the following… fixing the weld flange along the bottom of the rockers, and fixing the dents on the body.
