DRIVER'S SIDE WELDING COMPLETED

Today, the body work continued.  I have about a third of it done and ready for primer.  The body work on the fender patch panel on the passenger's side, shown in the photo to the right, has been completed.  
















 Paxton has fitted the fender patch panel on the driver's side as shown in the photo to the left.  This side had sustained some damage and is a bit more difficult to repair.  


















The photo to the right shows the patch panel welded in place.  This is the last of the body patch panels to be fitted.  A bit more body work will be required before priming.  


















Tomorrow, Don and I will pick up the newly restored engine.  The engine has been restored to its original specification making only the necessary modifications.  These modifications will certainly improve the engine's performance.  Hopefully, I will have the time to post tomorrow.

Stay tuned,
Tom McCurry
