a little more progress on the head light piece. ended up re making the first one, made some dies for the hammer to put the recess that the head light can sits in. hammered that in the panel and intalled the can and trim. at this point the panel is just sitting there, still needs some fine tuning but turned out nice



DUDE... this is a gorgeous truck!!!

been working on a making some new quarter panels for a model a sedan we are working on

making paper patterns



laying the pattern out on steel and cutting it out





shrinking the rear compound curve into the panel






test fitting to the car and laying out lower body lines and wheel arches for the larger tire





lower body line and wheel arch put in





turning the edges of the panel to fit in the factory seams, as well as the lip around the bottom of the body and wheel arch to attach the inner wheel well to











inner wheel well made in clipped in place







a little more finish work and weld up the inner wheel well and this one will be finished, not to do the other side and a new rear panel
