Tom,
Your car is going to look great!! |
Thanks Art! Hopefully I'll be able to take a few weeks off work soon and put some real time into the project. Still have a lot of parts to order like new seals(all of them), headliner, possibly another race seat for the passenger side, harnesseseses. Then I'll have to recover the door panels and dash.................................it never ends.

Nice dude! Sweet project.
Forum: What is the best way to fix that rear bumper? And what is the best way to attach lights on the the front fenders. Wouldn't a thorough sand blast to the hood and a little patch hold well? Regards, |
Bernard, I'm still thinking of how I want to mount the rear bumper. Obviously, I'll use part of the existing system where the ends are attached to the quarter panels, but for the center I'll have to fabricate something. It will probably be some pieces of 90 deg. angled sheetmetal with captured nuts and countersunk screws through the fiberglass into them.
As far as the hood, the holes are just pinholes and a little zap from the mig welder should do the trick. I'd be hesitant to sandblast any large, flat piece of sheetmetal for fear of warping it. Tom |
may be time for a FG hood...

got some new parts in
and decided to fiddle with the car a little. Waiting on my hood from TRE which should be here this week.
Got these from TRE as well: http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1189567668.jpg And these from Rennspeed: http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1189567752.jpg trial fit of both: http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1189567820.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1189567851.jpg Then, just for kicks I decided to hack up a '67 swb fender I had: http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1189567944.jpg 5 minutes later http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1189567990.jpg Trial fit to my SC fender http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1189568043.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1189568073.jpg I'm sure I'll have to jockey things around a bit one my new hood is on, but it was nice to see how it may possibly look. Stay tuned:p |
