    Well I finally Installed the rear suspension and rebuilt rearend today. After haveing the Mav. in storage for over a year now i can finally bring her home and start installing the quarters. for the first time in about a year and a half its finally back on four wheels. First thing i plan to do is install the fenders and front valance to make sure everything fits up ok and to cut the notchs for the small bumper. plus i have to reinstall the doors to make sure the quarters are aligned properly.After much dicussion with two different friends (both owners of body shops) i have decided to go with the quarter panel glue instead of welding them on (except for the spot welds of course) they both say that it works very well and have had no problems with it at all. One of them is even willing to help me do it actual glueing when it comes time. dont worry i will keep you posted and with plenty of pics......jim
