Did you look at the street view? Make a right on Mission, You'll see me on the right at the fence. I just looked again. It cracks me up.

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
To answer one question. Google has a fleet of Priuses that are armed with 360 degree camera arrays and they just drive around..lol
Strodder, I'm going to use your idea for the drip rails. I have to metal finish mine anyhow and didn't want to shave them. I like the look a lot.

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
Dennis, I like what you are doing with the driprails. Mine are rusted away at a few spots and I haven't come up with a good idea, but I think yours just might do the trick. Anymore pictures of your progress would be appreciated

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
Thanks Dennis! Now for the technical stuff. Where you hammered it down there is a very thin air gap I would assume, are you worried about rust in there at a later date? I know you are welding over it and stuff, I am just curious?

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
I don't think there will be any problems with rust up here in the high desert. But with a skim coat, and primer sealer should keep it dry in there. Especially after I paint it.

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
That makes sense. So if I am understanding how this is going to look, after you are done welding you are going to bondo up and blend into the crown of the roof panel right?

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
Right. BTW I'm going to add a strip of metal across the rear drip rail, and not hammer it down. I will blend the sides into the back.

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
I think I see what you are saying. I can't wait to see the finally outcome. I don't think I have ever seen this done before, but it should give it a nice custom look!

I got the idea from the 46 Studebaker truck I use to have. The drip rails were flared like that stock. When the drip rails are shaved off clean it doesn't look finished. With the flare done it gives it style, and still has that custom clean look.
