Little progress in the paneling process up front..slow..tedious ...but worth it in the end...having to plan for hoses..wiring ..etc...as U go......pita!!.....
1st pic of stock "pooch" of fender on dr. side..moded pass. side before welding...then a 3/16" rod welded to core to form cover or lip for panels..little trick I learned years ago...able to put fender side panel under stock "lip"...this is a mock up waiting for dimple dies to arrive!! I'm going to order the grill top enclosure ..but I've always not liked the top of it having edge exposed...will do the 3/16" rod trick on grill side too in order to clean that up...lots of work... by the way that pass. side fender panel will have another 4 spot bulkhead fitting installed .....to connect from the one under the pass. end of firewall...hoses routed over Slosh Tubz (another head swell for Mike..lol) inside fender...I know..lots of connections but U can install these before Tubz and forget em....later jim |
