@toolman great job on the pie cuts! Looking forward to seeing the finished product

thanks everyone! appreciate the words. @AydinZ71I had a lot of it, just need to hammer and dolly it.

Finished the driver side rear wheel well.

ace race is good, stainless bros are also good. I always use one of these two.

@AydinZ71 all mild steel, just ground down some of the welds for now. Still need to hammer them out but limited on time at the moment. @NelsonianThanks! Hopefully start the other side in the next couple weeks. Glad to see everything finally coming together though.

great progress so far. I just did the passenger side door jambs as well, starting the driver side shortly

Excited to follow the build! Any pictures?

Slow progress but any is better than none. Hammered out the passenger side rear. Still need to do some trimming but its better than how it was. Need to finish up the passenger side rear quater then weld them to the back.

Great job on the progress! gave me some more motivation to work on mine. Glad to know the new panel was such a great fit.

rear out came out nicely, where did you guys buy your replacement panel from? I started making one this weekend but works gotten abit to busy was thinking I might buy one.

Looking good! Did you paint it??

After fitting the rear quarter panel on the driver side I didn't like how the rear dog leg was aligning so I decided to cut it off and remake a new one. I ended up making the radius section a little more defined the second time around.

@AydinZ71 ya typically ill do a paper template, tape it all over the car and if I like it I'll either make a wood or wire buck.

@AydinZ71 Saw your build its coming along nicely. Can't wait until the rust is all gone. I'm going to need to do some research to see how I'll tube the back.

More rust, thinking about just tubing the entire rear end...

@Bobendid you ever get this complete?

Great job on the motor mounts, what thickness of material did you end up using?

Great update, good amount of pictures. What are you planning on doing with the dash, something custom? Do you have plates on the other side (inside) of the firewall or are the tubes all connected to one another?

wheels are 12in outside to outside, cannot recall what the offsets were at the moment. Tires are 225. 45 i think

ya thats the hard part, doing mine right now. Trying to have eveything flow is a pain.

Small update, been trying to finish up the driver side rear fender. Have it roughed out but it still needs to be shaped beside the door and the rear of the panel needs to be brought down another 1.5in after that I can finish welding, hammer and dolly, knock down the welds and then to try to find all of the highs and lows. The panel currently sits past the edge of the rim so that the wheel is tucked in when the car is lowered, I havent decided if I want that or if I would prefer it to be flush.

Yup thats them.

Great progress so far! Are all of the tabs in good shape that hold the bottom of the rear light panel? If not do you plan of making some, buying them or just leaving it as is?

@Jboogsthethug, hopefully! Been taking advantage of some of the days off work. Glad I decided to not use the fender flares, worst part is all the time lost.
