Looks like I have to do the body work on my '75 myself... new floorboards, door posts, rocker arms, and inner fenders. Anyone have any recommendations for a good body repair manual/book out there?

I got mine via JBG...taking it apart and rebuilding it is the only way to really learn/know how it is build.

As far as books go, there are several you could find by going to any of the big book sellers. Right off hand I don't have a name to give you but you can look in the automotive book section. I have looked through a couple of them, but most of my help has come from reading the posts of other owners who have done similar things. At other times I just dive in.

Good luck,

:)>-

Find replacement metal line up then cut and then weld new piece in and grind then fill as little as possible then sand and sand some more then paint too match. Read and learn too do all or give up and take too body shop! Sorry too be harsh but that is what it takes too do it well . the other option is buy a newer clean body tub, other wise if this is a one time project price body shop verse welder, grinder and other tools and time and paint srayers and all consumables and learning curve... Took me a few years too do anything well with practice and that makes experience for next project and that stays with you for life
