Re: My 57 Pro Street

Now the fun starts.
I made some tabs to hold things in position.
I had to make a bunch of relief cuts so I could bend the lower section back to meet the upper section.
Started with 4" between them and worked down to 1" at the corners.

Re: My 57 Pro Street

I started tacking in the center and worked my way around to each side.
When I got to the corners I had to trim the tops to fit.
I got the gradual transition I was looking for.
Well I ran out of welding gas so I will have to leave the rest for another day.
Hope this was informative.
