    This is the rear tunnel I made using the English wheel (fitting with rubber band) and planishing hammer to fold the sides. I also did some replacing on floors [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]

    Once the body was mated to the frame for the last time I started making gaps perfect. Adding and subtracting metal is so tedious. I did some pre body work also to save money at the paint shop

    You do some nice work there, little details [not work wise] make your car a standout. love the wing window trim.

    Here are some pictures of Ryan Evans striping the dash at NEW Motorama car show in Green Bay

    Got all the glass cut and installed, waiting to install rear window until interior is done though.

    **Update** car was sold. New owner finished interior and drives the car a lot, even made a hitch to pull his vintage camper. The car is still in Wisconsin
