Default Amazing work Cris!

Wow, that is some nice fab work! I like the exhaust clearance, the extra structure you've added in the rear seat area, and the rear down tubes used for integrating the trunk hinge supports.

Wonderful stuff, keep up the great work!

The panel looks great, I love seeing work like that. It sets the build apart. How much pressure do you use to stamp those?

Thank you Wayne! The bead roller we have has a set of dies that give us that roll with a measured presure on the top adjustable shaft
