Well we pick up our story already in progress but I hope that by forcing myself to post some pictures I will be motivated to keep going.
I bought the car may years ago and have yet to truely enjoy it. I have started to restore it several times and always get distracted but this weekend the baby (and his mother) is out of town and we have a three day weekend so lets see how far I can get. Here is where we are starting this morning. |

Finally got some time to work on the car again over the last few weekends. I fabricated the part below to patch a rust hole on the drivers side right behind the jackpost. When I started the jack post and "pyramid" cover looked pretty solid but a few minutes with a screwdriver and I had what you saw above. I bought a few new parts from AA and fabricated the piece below. They are not the prettiest but they are the best lookin' part I have made to date
It may be alittle while before I can weld it on since I think I would be well served to remove the outer clamshell and see what is going on aroud those heater tubes and I have little more work to do to the inner piece of steel behind this piece. |
