I'm glad to see you're working on it and hope nothing serious happened to keep you from it until now!?! Regardless, progress is ALWAYS good! Keep the pics coming and let me know if you ever need moral support! :thumbsup:

Thanks Geoff! It's great to hear from you!!

Very happy to see you are able to spend some time on the car---and glad you have new updates for us. I believe if I looked up the definition of "Persistence" in the dictionary, your picture would be next to it. Keep pushing forward.

Lil Update!
 
After a long day in the garage and with the help of my good friend Brian, the frame is done and ready for paint!

I finished blending the gussets to the UCA mounts and got some primer on them.

Then it was time to install the new inner fenders for the first time...I've been dreading this! They actually fit better than the last set that Chris had to do a ton of work on to make fit. I was very pleased with the install! Now that they fit I will fill all the unused holes, then prim and paint.

Next order of business is to get the fenders to play a nicer with the valance. One thing is for sure, Repop '67-'68 fender extensions fit like crap! No worries, I will whip them into shape! :)

This is the best I could get everything to fit after a lot of adjustment and enlarging bolt holes. Tomorrow I will get a little more serious! :unibrow:

You can also see where Chris modified the fenders at the bumper bracket locations. He did a good job, but I will clean that line up a bit more as well.
