Well life got the best of me lately. I have been really busy with work and life so the 40 took a back seat, but I logged a few hours in the garage today and managed to tack up my first panel. Technically not that tough, but I did make a few mistakes that cost me some time with fitting the panel. I also discovered how rusty these things are in the joints! I spent some time fabricating the section of the wheel well that attaches to the quarter panel. A good chunk of it was way to far gone to salvage. I also discovered some surface rust inside the main Spar of the tub. I ordered up some frame saver from Eastwood. It took almost an hour just to get all the sand,Dirt and debris out of the Spar. I found a nice nest inside. I guess this thing must have spent some time parked somewhere. Enjoy the pics.
