Re: Kabwe's aka Bam's build
I think I know what you wanted but not going to say anything except are they wider than 10" in the back?

Re: Kabwe's aka Bam's build
Is there a difference in width between the front fenders of the 58-59 and the 55 fenders you have?

Re: Kabwe's aka Bam's build
Man when it comes to body work, your the man! I have spent hours an hours working on a stock rear fender and i thought to myself some people shouldn't do body work! ( me) and then i see people like your self that make it look easy, and i know it's NOT. That came out great Kabwe.

Re: Kabwe's aka Bam's build
Thanks guys I've been trying to get some stuff done but as you know prepping body panels can be quite tedious. Those panels are not done they are just epoxy primed and still need to be blocked. Lots of hammer and dolly work to get them to that point.

Re: Kabwe's aka Bam's build
That hood looks great. How does one make a primed hood shine like a paintjob? See you got skils.

Re: Kabwe's aka Bam's build
Kabwe, your front sheet metal looks great. I love the sectioned hood. I want to do mine sometime. Keep up the great work.
