Work is going slow on mine. I am working two jobs which keep me busy so I am only able to work weekends on it (if something else around the house doesn't need attention). I have decided in order to do it right, I need an air compressor and media blaster. Also have to get a mig welder to patch up the battery box, and a few other minor rust holes. The more I work on it though, I am pretty happy as it is very solid compared to other Vegas I have seen. The floor pans are solid, the trunk pan is solid with the exception of a hole the size of a silver dollar. The 'C' pillars are gone. Not sure what to do on that but fabricate them.
Hood is easier to replace than repair, and the rear hatch is iffy. Would like to get a replacement if I can find one.
Nothing worth a picture at this time, but hopefully this summer I will have made some progress worth showing.
The reminants of the Nomad stickers are slightly visible on the front, back and B pillars. Only one tailgate spear is left (totally shot) and the side moulding is in the back, but not worth saving.
I am also missing one trim piece on the bottom drivers side A pillar where the vinyl top was mounted. It might be easy to make if I can find a trim piece of the same size.
Going pretty much original except the color. Probably will do orange or red with white stripe(s). I will also do the interior in black. I think this tan color is one of the most hideous colors on any car. Almost looks like a military car.
It is hard to believe that thousands of these were made as they appear to be more rare than the Cosworth now.
