[Jeff Detrich]

Wow, gotta love the skill of the craftsmen who would undertake this
project! And the insurance company that was willing to pay for it.

     Tom,
     'Frame' was bent but suspension was undamaged and front trunk only
     slightly dented. ALL front sheet metal from the cowl forward was
     replaced. NOS hood, front valance and RH fender top. Cowl, LH fender
     and front inner structure from a front clip I bought, fabricated RH
     fender side.
     Repaint will be the same metallic silver.
