Aloha!
I just made this account last night so still a little rusty on exactly how the forum works but I am sure in time I will pick things up. Just picked up a 76 GT the other day for $300 and figured the best way to learn the in and outs of the car is to just talk with all you guys who have already done what I am about to do. The car that I picked up has no engine, it' got a lot of rust, and the interior is practically non existent. That being said the car is a complete ground up resto plan for me. I will try to give links to pictures of it but still figuring out how to do that properly. My first question for all you guys out there is there any chance that there is a company out there who makes replacement panels for our first gens? Tried to google it but found no such luck, that is my main concern right now. Stripping her down soon and want to start welding her back to what she should be. Look forward to sharing my build with you guys and seeing everything this forum has to offer! Aloha,
-Nik
