No I,ve been working on this car for almost 10 years, projects about 95% complete. I had a post on here of what I started with, but had to delete and create a new thread. Man, it was BAD!
I'll try and get some of those pics back up.

Here is some front end Fab work. Tried a couple of differnt versions of Inner Fenders and ended up going with this. I wanted Max Tire clerance up front. Its simple, but looks
really clean painted up and engine installed. The hinges are Ring Brothers. It actually took quite a bit of effort getting both hinges centered bewteen the fenders because of my setup. These things are precise and don't have a lot of play in them, unlike the factory hinges. Located and welded 1/8 steel plates for mounting because the crap aftermarket fender hinge mounting locations weren't very straight.

I rolled all the panels my self. I bought a bead roller from Pro-Tools. I used their tubing bender as well to bend cage. Decent tools for the price.
I will probably never use it again, lol.
