So I climbed on a ladder and....

....took this shot. Some people have asked about the look of the new fenders. From a side view, they really do look stock. From this view? Well, I'll let you decide.

The driver's front fender is bonded in place. Photos coming this evening in a different thread.

Tuesday, October 14th will be a milestone day. We're dropping the body on for a test fit prior to painting. We're back in high gear.

Looking at these photos, it struck me how appropriate my Avatar really is.

Looks like the guy on the right is winning.

It's noon Saturday, and the final old fender has been cut off. By Tuesday, all four new fenders will be on.

Looks like we can hold to the plan for the test body drop on the 14th. Who knows........maybe paint by the end of the month.

Roll on next month - Looking good!

I guess you could say I've got "the urge to merge!"

All four new fenders are finally on. No rivets...no screws...all Dominion Sure Seal "Rigidflex Bonder".

Looks like the "test" body-drop will go ahead next Tuesday.

Looks great...I saw a heavily modified '63 split window at a cruise last Saturday with similar flares. They were so subtle that few people even noticed them, myself included...the owner had to point them out. This was a gorgeous car...the guy told me it was off the road for 4 years turning it into the awesome machine it is today. :cool
