Bucky92 Posted April 4, 2007 Author Share Posted April 4, 2007 Much too much work to do!(at least for me:lol:) But seriously, it looks good, I wish I knew how to work metal at all... metal work isnt too hard...if you get thin enough guage to be able to bend and shape it....2 hammers ( a regular and asmall ball peen ) tin snips and a pair of channel locks did the shaping...and my 2 new favorite tools did the attaching ( my 19.2 V Craftsman screw gun and my pop rivet gun).. Hey if us girls can do it ( heck I am jealous of heartless...she can weld!) you can too.......actually ...my fiance ,who is car clueless, just watches for a few minutes and walks away saying " better you then me":) If you think that little fender work is too much...wait till you see when I fix my other quarter panel...its going to require removal of a very large bad patch...alot of cutting grinding adding and shaping...Hopefully ..in the long run Rocky will be saved..I am saving up to have a new front frame fabricated and welded under him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zebisko Posted April 5, 2007 Share Posted April 5, 2007 I wait tentatively for you to do it. I like seeing metal work done, and hope someday to learn the skill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
