I had this going elsewhere but think this is where it is supposed to be posted. Found a very rusted out (bottom was totally gone) G&B 176 over on the wet side of Washington State. I was able to get some parts from Richard over in Walla Walla (thanks Richard!!) to get the skins back to normal with the additional help of some major patch panels and a lot of work from a friend that really knows body work. Not only did it have a lot of rust, but it was banana shaped from a hit at some point. Its been about 2 months working nights and weekends, but the lower portion of the pump is pretty much wrapped up.

I forget the specifics on the car, is my buddy's that helped me with the major body work. He's a machinist by trade, but its actually a late 90's jeep cherokee chassis and running gear. The car was actually reengineered to function as a unibody like the original jeep.
I'll ask for the year etc. I know its won a lot of regional awards in the vintique/hot rod shows.
