just took a few after I pulled the radio back out. I used the outside mounting bracket to drill new holes to mount the radio.

Dash with the new mounting holes drilled. I went to mount the radio and found I had forgotten the center hole for the dial light.

Started to repair the roof line on the drivers side this will be my learning curve side. I can already see that when I do the passanger side I will make my cut about 1inch higher so that I can rust prohibit easier on the frame work and bracing for the roof.

It was mentioned that maybe the drip rails might have to be done away with. From looking at things with the rusted piece of roof removed Im thinking that I will be able to fix this rust without removing the rail. If they did have to come off it doesnt look like it would be that much of a job in the area of the doors at least. If someone was thinking of doing this for custom work it should be very do-able.
