.....x2.........

Details, details, details...I'm doing the same type work on the '57. Work all day and it doesn't look like you did anything!!!!!!

I hate rust repair

It's like I keep telling people Charlie, if it was easy everyone would be doing it!!!!! Rusted panels and pieces is just another opportunity to improve things from the way the factory did it!

Thanks for the reply guys!
Only way to get it done is just get at it!
My trunk was in relatively good shape not much in the way of rust but it looks like it was tweaked a lil like someone bumped the corner into something.
But really wanted to finish the trunk like the hood!

Heres a few of the hood and the ram air i built for it!
i built a scoop behind the grille angled down a lil to catch fesh air and it shoots up a tube i built and exits out from this tri five style bird i built and shoots frah air into the air cleaner directly!
Seems to work well with just air gun at 60mph should work even better lol

And your right do all this work and nobody even see's it but its nice to see them all start to come together as one!
Thanks i'll keep you guys posted as long as you dont mind photos lol.
Later George

I can handle more pics. Keep em coming.
How much clearance you got between the bird and the hood?
1/8"?
Looks like a close fit.

Yeh it's close! Under 1/2"

All welded up ready to start smoothing!
Deffantly alot smoother looking than before!

"don't mind photos"????

Love those photos!!!!!

Keep 'em coming George
Awesome craftsmanship and insane inovation are all over this rig, Thanks for sharing!!!

Really nice work, George!!!! Seems we tend to spend a lot of time on the things nobody notices but it does add to the quality and detail of the entire project. Heck, admit it!!!! Sometimes it's fun to put detail work into components just wondering if anyone ever will notice!!!!!!

Very true!
Like i mentioned before i call it cleaning up the ugly, just the lil things that look nice adjusted or changed minorly like i flipped my bumpers and sectioned the rear one and moved them closer to the body!
to me loooooook so much better but took 3 weeks to do had to fab new valance panels and bumper brackets etc.
