ok, heres my new project. this is going to go pretty slow, until i can get some decent time to get work done... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/huh.gif) I hate school. ordered metal, and am waiting for it to arrive. I'm glad i didn't pay alot for this car, cause i found 100 percent more rust than I expected. things that looked solid, fell apart. lots of fabrication work. But i'm not afraid to fabricate stuff. I gotten pretty good. here are some pics that are more recent. Hope you enjoy this thread!!!!!!! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) drivers side after digging

Hi,
good work. Nice to see that young people also love this old beauty´s. Cutting out the rusted pieces: be sure you go far enough, so you can weld your nice fabricated patches to solid metal. Otherwise you won´t be very happy. Guess how i know (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif) maybe you find this helpfull: My Restoration Thread Keep on your nice work, hope you can drive the car soon.
