A quick update. I've worked my way down the right side of the racer and now begun welding a couple panels in place. As I mentioned (maybe too many times) this is new to me and I basically have a few books and videos and a big dream...
The pictures were taken with my phone. I will have much better ones later...
Here you can see the panels are taking shape.
And I now I have welded my first seam on the car (my first seam ever...) and begun to dress the seam.
Here I have wheeled the front fender into a general shape and tacked a seam.
I've been taking my time as I go. The planning is almost as time consuming as the fabrication. I've thrown out a few pieces as I learn to wheel and I've been able to save a few that I thought were too far out of whack. It's really one of the best things I've done for "me" in a long time. Definitely therapeutic!
