Few updates on my Little Sand Beige Coupe.......

I used the Scott Rod Panels



2012-03-01231414.jpg


Marked the area off for grinding, so we would have a nice solid weld. For those wandering we only found it necessary to clearance the small spot you see with the paint missing in the next photo. Mark only had to hammer it in some, no 5lb hammer stuff just minor. Other than that the fit was Great. I do know that I tried them on the white car before it left and found out that on an Air Bag car the front of the Scott Rod Aprons will have to be trimmed.....

2012-03-01231433.jpg


Painted the Scott Rod Panels with some primer on the back...should help with Rust........

Passenger Side was fun........It will have the Hole cut for the Power Pipe....very hard to determine with out the engine.

The hole looks kinda of large but with the trim we have to go around it. I think it will be just fine. Also welded up the Top of the Radiator support for a clean look.
