Details

 

There are always a lot of little things that need to get done before you can go on to the big things.
This tail light mounting panel had a section cut out for some reason. So I patched it in with new metal. Traced the pattern from the other side of car. 

 



 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The muffler hanger mounting bracket at the rear of the boot floor had been torn off, leaving cracks and bits of the old bracket behind. The owner just drilled a hole in the floor and attached to that instead. After repairs to the boot floor a new bracket was made and welded in.  




 



















Making up new bottom 'fillers' for the area under the tailfin points. Old pieces used as patterns. 





























































Oh no! I made two left-handed pieces! That caused me to do a double-take for a moment.


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Test fitting. When this gets welded in the parts need to be assembled in a specific sequence.
