Fit the panels to repair the inner wheel well. Feels good to be starting to put things back together. Still have more clean up and more pieces to make. Here's the surgery on the drivers side

Here's the hole on the passenger side. I kinda freaked over this but the panel from Restoration Designs fit very well. It needed a little massage but not much

Look at that... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/clap56.gif)

The 914club sticker is "watching" over your work.

Another quality piece from Restoration design.

One side of the die makes a flange & the other side punches a 3/16" hole.

Holy Toldeo Batman. (I mean Mark)

That is cool. I knew what task the tool performed but I had NO idea that it punched the hole also.

Damn.. it is now on the "must have list".

here is the link for the flange tool. I got one a while back, but have not had a chance to use it on the teener. I did test it out on some scrap it works real good.

They are having a special on a body saw. This works good for tight spaces. Mine zips through the sheet metal without any trouble.

Passively fit the top portion of the frame rail. Making a template really helped. Tomorrow I'll get the firewall pieces done.

I DON'T THINK SO, but by the time I'm through I should be well qualified to watch and give advice.

Cut and fit template for passenger's firewall. Both of these areas are actually 2 pieces (upper firewall and lower inside firewall). Time to go cut and bend some metal.

I've become consumed working on this. I get up early and work on it before I go to the office and after i come home. The wife is getting so desperate to do something together she wants to help do the winter clean up in the vegetable garden. I'm gonna have to get a real life soon., but maybe I can stretch one more day of working on the car.

Ya Kevin I'll do you one better. I'll put the 4' wide rottiller behind the JD tractor and let Gerry till the whole thing under. Betsy and I can get our together time watching the kid work. (Might work once until Gerry finds out how boring it is to drive the tractor at a whooping .5 MPH.)
