Been a busy few weeks - we got a permanent foster kid placement the beginning of the month, two kids birthdays, getting the old camper set up at the campground for the next month and course my Carlisle trip but back at it today. The rear end was a nice break from bodywork but I need to get that all done if I want to make my goal of having it in paint before winter. I was able to find some good used corner pieces for the lower windshield area which saved me money over buying a repro panel and time over having to hand fabricate them. Drivers side is fit now on to the passenger side which isn't as bad then I'll start welding them in.

Cowl work continues, it was caved in slightly so needed to be pulled up a bit on both sides and along the vents. On the sides I used my stud gun but made a tool to fit in between the vent slots to pull up the middle and it worked nicely.

Hopefully last skim coat of mud, once I sand it smooth I can get the upper cowl in epoxy. Next is to finish work on front wheel wells and engine bay.

Yes! Totally forgot to let you know and thank you again for that - it worked great, holes are drilled.
