Good times!!! sanding and more sanding... Looking good. you need to get yourself a pin welder/dent puller and save yourself some welding time... one of the best tools I've picked up over the years for closed in panel areas. Keep up the good work

I actually have one. I've used it in a couple of places. Most of the metal I've replace was either rusty, or, badly stretched out.

Metal work looks very good. Impressed. Not easy, but you made it look easy.

Oh ok, understood Looking at your pictures I'm having flash backs to mine and had to do a double take to make sure it wasn't mine...






Some day I'll get it done... too many projects getting in the way.

Good luck with yours!!! I'll keep watching if you keep posting

Spring update time! So, truck will come out of hibernation at the end of April. Waiting a bit longer this year, because, I managed to break my ankle at work in January! Been off since, should be going back to work in a few weeks. But, big day for the truck, the grill and headlight bezels came home from the plate shop, and it is beautiful! More updates when she comes home.

Yep, more and more I find that if Amazon doesn't have it, I don't really need it.

Baja..

Well, time to get this going again for the summer! Since I managed to screw up my current hood ( by being impatient, and dropping it...) I found another decent one. Price was right, too....FREE! Does need some work, but, I can scavenge off the damaged hood if need be. I'll sandblast the inner structure, then manually strip the rest.

Here is the one bad spot. I'm going to try and push it back out, but, if that fails, I'll cut a piece off of the other hood to graft in.
