datsunfreak Posted April 20, 2015 Report Share Posted April 20, 2015 Will it be blended in and painted body color, or be a bolt-on? Blended in a la Celica would be pretty cool... Quote Link to comment

maltese Posted April 21, 2015 Report Share Posted April 21, 2015 Will it be blended in and painted body color, or be a bolt-on? Blended in a la Celica would be pretty cool... ...when I start to tack it to the apron I will hammer dolley to get a close profile but because it's going bare metal for now I'm ok with this, when I do go to paint final day I will probably re enforce some more and it will get a full day at the bondo/fiber glass spa :D I should clear it up that it is/will be permenantly fixed to the apron haha 1 Quote Link to comment

TENDRIL Posted April 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2015 Haha that was the plan and so was the engine bay, however, I recieved the incorrect color, Annnnd it's kind of growing on me lol, there is a gal. Of the correct green here but I'm told the catalyst is really hard to find for the specifc brand. Quote Link to comment
TENDRIL Posted April 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2015 Think im going to call it a night, I never really planned on doing this much to my apron at this point in time, but here I am with about 15hrs into it lol smh 2 Quote Link to comment

TENDRIL Posted April 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2015 Hood flew up or was bent to far at some point so because the metal is stretched in this area I am re enforcing it with some angle iron cut at the bend and shaped to fit, I will weld to the frame and side rail but not the hood skin because I do not want to create more war page =mor work Quote Link to comment
