Restoration Page 2 : Dec 1998 - May 1999

|
A shot of the interior after I stripped it. |

|
The left fender needed work. |

|
So I stripped it to take a look. Someone rivited a pice of metal to it and slopped bondo all over. |

|
Fabbed a piece while the fender was still on. The technique worked well. |

|
Removed the fender and strengthened the frame |

|
Fitted the piece with the body and welded it on. |

|
Made a small patch for the bottom of the driver's door. Sanblasted the left part of the front chassis.. |

|
Replaced the old badly beaten rad support. |

|
Sandlasted the inner fender and the front little bit there.
|

|
..and the fender. |

|
Put the whole thing back together. Done. |

|
The right side. |

|
Ungodly amount of rust, crap, and mouse shit. |
|

|
Cut out the rusted metal, sandblasted, and primed. |

|
My uncle welding the new piece with the arc welder. You can even see sparks! |

|
Right fender rotted too. |

|
Another patch piece for the right fender. |

|
Wedled the patch piece and removed all the tar. |

|
The inner fender had a paper-wasp's nest and a couple mice tacked to it! Blew all that shit out. |

|
Sandblasted. |

|
Sandblasted. Boy that was a mistake. |
