Steven Eck is restoring this 1965 GTO hardtop.CLICK-> 
The interior, doors, grilles, trim, and engine have been removed. The body work and painting is being performed by East Bay Customs of Brentwood, California.CLICK-> 
The instruments have been removed from the dash. It looks like this car was red at one time.CLICK-> 
The metal around the rear window and the piece between it an the trunk lid has been replaced.CLICK-> 
The floor of the trunk looks pretty good.CLICK-> 
The front bumper, radiator support, and fenders are removed. That looks like a Chevelle next to it - getting the same treatment.CLICK-> 
Another shot of the 1965 GTO with the front metal removed.CLICK-> 
The frame comes off and the body is put on a rotisserie.CLICK-> 
The rear end panel behind the bumper is also replaced with new metal.CLICK-> 
I didn't realize that there is a separate piece of metal that holds the rear tail lights. It hasn't been installed on this side.CLICK-> 
Time to work o the frame. Wow, this is a nice shop. There are some nice cars under construction in the background.CLICK-> 
Shot of the original frame from the rear.CLICK-> 
The frame is stripped of suspension and exhaust components. It is then prepared for powder coating.CLICK-> 
Meanwhile, the body is masked off for some primer and base coats.CLICK-> 
A shot down the rear wheel well of the body. Looks like it has been undercoated.PICTURE SET CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE ... |
