    Heres a few pics of how I spent my Saturday. I used part of my old fender to re-make the lower part of the outer wheel house.






    Thanks again to dmines, great parts deal.

    Cool ... glad you got to put that Fender and NOS 1/4 Panel to good use! Looking good! ... Just don't bang it up again ... I don't have any more of them! :)

    Not so much the talent as the proper tools, but thanks. I'm happy with the progress. I'd be happy if it is done by next spring, I have a few other things going on, and this weekend was the best time for me to do something on my car. But i did notice the axle tube might be bent, the spring perch has a crack in it, and the left rear wore kinda funny after the wreck.
