Exposed Posted September 10, 2023 Author Share Posted September 10, 2023 Been practicing my metal finishing before i redo a couple more body panels. Below isnt any specific piece, just a practice panel 1) Pattern, 1/2 of the piece 2) 1/2 section roughed in 3) 1/2 section Wheeled. other section is a mirror image. 4) both 1/2 sections welded together. then finished 5) welded seam gets polished. First picture below has the weld running down the middle of the piece. Second photo is showing its overall profile. and with that I think ill be redoing the hood and from valance out of aluminum.

Jboogsthethug Posted September 13, 2023 Share Posted September 13, 2023 man that is nutty. I need to practice my metal work apparently! This is your full-time job isn't it? Not the Z but metal working in general. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exposed Posted February 26 Author Share Posted February 26 also started the new headlight buckets and front end, going to be using aluminum. Going to be going with a gnose styled end. Last side of my intercooler is almost all fabbed, little more welding then need to attach it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AydinZ71 Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 Compliments on the metal work. I know how hard it is to make that work, and having restored mine from bare metal, I recognize the talent and patience necessary. Nice job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
