Back up in yo ass with the fabrication

i got the front end off the red civic in the beginning to replace mine after mine loved an Impala.

Crazy! Last I knew It was grafted onto a sedan then ripped off that by the next owner...

at least i thought it was that one, i remember getting a red EG front end from you. we picked it up in another hatch and couldn't believe we got the hood, both fenders, rad. support and bumper all into the car.

Lmao! That's right I totally forgot about that...

You seem very talented from following your El Camino and this project. :thumbsup:
The video was very well done and I think you showed both your abilities and your professional demeanor and I hope you get the spot with Power Nation!

 

[The ghoul]

Thankyou! It would be amazing to get a spot, but I'd be geeked to just go for an interview and see the tech center.

Lots of work to be done, but first a selfie

Then on to drip rail delete, I first cut the drip rail into sections, then removed every other section and welded em

This keeps the roof skin from "springing" or warping
Then it was a matter of tack welding and moving to keep a lot of heat from building up and warping the metal..
Once it was all welded, I just hit it with the grinder

Decision has been made and cutting has started, 4" chop it is
Braced up

Marked out

With the fresh hair cut

And the quick mockup




Roof needs to be quarterd and cuts need to be cleaned up (as they were done with only a saws all...)
But so far so good.
