Okay, hope everyone out there is doing well with their projects! Where am I looking for vehicle info like corvettes have a trim tag on the A pillar with a vin#. I want to go into the side garage and see what I really have here.
Thank You

The only other option would be a Sport, and there's not any way to tell from that info if it was. If you've got some chrome on there it could have been, but those items could have been removed also. A Marti Report would tell you for sure. Just from I can see in your pics it wasn't a Sport.

Today I noticed that the door skins were not bad at all but when I ran my hand underneath I could feel and see that they are rotted out in some areas. Do they sell an entire door? I've seen the outer panels or do I weld in new metal.

You can buy a complete door but people often say they don’t fit as well as original metal so if you only have a couple rust spots that can be cut out and replaced then I would go that route first...especially if it’s underne and not really visible.

body stand

Any pictures or thoughts or design on a stand for the body once it is removed from the frame. Just trying to see what's best for the upcoming work.

Thank You

So I sold a 68 vette project and had to deliver it to Va. That gave me room to move the Bronco into the shop. Still have the 71 vette project on the lift but it did allow me to start removing a few things, like the rotted out hood. Took off a few things but was not sure if this light was original to the var or if ord even had an under hood light. Anyone.........................................................

Thanks everyone for the quick responses. Looked like the only things coming off the hood was the latch, wiper pisses and the. Will try to get the windshield tie down bracket but it looks a little shot.

So I took a few more pictures of my rustbucket. Removed the dummy floor panel patches and the seat. Kinda everywhere I look there is rust. I see and read that there appear to be a ton of different ways to approach these restores. I kinda think that everyone does their own thing. I can do that also but just need to decide if I want to really get into this build. Anyway enjoy the rust shots!
