Glad to see you're banging it out! Looks great!



:clap: Thanks Greg! Sometimes I'm :EmoteClueless: cuz there is so much to do and then I make a goal for that day or weekend and just :gitrdun: !!!

All you have to do is pick up a tool ... thanks for looking!

Great Progress
 
Michael, looking great, is bonding the metal stronger/equal to welding ? or do you plan to weld some also? I think this is the first time I've seen anyone bond a lot of metal parts together on one of these cars.
Thanks
Keith

:thankyou: Keith, a properly bonded part is stronger than a welded part ... the bonded sheet metal will tear before the bond gives whereas the spot weld will give way under tension. I did weld areas recommended as per the instructions.

To be a leader you need to innovate :ohsnap:


Got the tunnel mods done, check that off the list ....

After the adhesive cures I'll finish off the tunnel mods from the bottom, still needs some material trimmed off, left it long on purpose!!!

Thanks for looking ...

Time to get busy ... I made patches for the trunk floor pan to tubs, finished off the tunnel, and the patches to close out the front of the rocker panel. Sanded the entire bottom and now it's time for epoxy and Lizard Skin.
