Door finished, dash welded in..

Got the dashboard welded in today. Had to straighten it with the porta-power to get it in place. It was a little bumped up. Also put some pieces in to see how the whole instrumentcluster fitted. Will need some more work but then it will fit nicely.




Also finished the passager door. Have started hammering on the doorskin on the driver side door too. Also made a holder for the rubberseal on the bottom of the door.

Door repair

Started repairing the passager door. It was a little thin (with some holes) at the rounded lower corner. Also the doorskin has a hole in the lower front corner. So i fixed the rounder edge and started welding the lower part of the door where the weather strip has been glued.

Metal work, metal work, metal work... and some more metal work...

Welded in the cowl panel today. After that i ripped away the radiator stand and used a porta-power to fix the hood fitment a little better. Will start straightening the front up a little more precise now and then weld in the new radiator stand.

Cowl Panel repair

Finished the repair under the cowl panel today. Also primed it one more time with the epoxy primer, painted the new cowl panel back and also painted the backside of the dash cluster. Will hopefully start welding the new cowl panel in place this weekend.

More parts and more rustfix

Got some more parts this week. The 428ci std bore engine block, some interior parts like door panels with aluminum inserts. I also ripped away part of the cowl panel and started fixing some rust under there. Also got time to test the new plasma cutter and cut hole for the tank lid.

More welding

Have been at my parents home (same place as the garage) this week and watched over the dog and all the cats. So I have made some use of the time and continued reparing some rust on the Rustang.

Finished welding the driprail and rear frame. Also welded in a frame strengthener thats from the mustang cabrioletts. Changed the driverside floorframe, added the same frame strengthener on driver side. Changed a piece of the kickbox that was messed up, probably from the crash. Also started welding in the floor and the piece that goes up to the firewall. Got some time to start fitting the floor piece to.

Here are some pics of it all.

Rust Fix

Finished up the passagerside today with the underfloor frame. Took me some time to change a piece on the rear frame, it must have been caught and ripped up i something. Also repaired the lower part of the driprailing on the passager side that was very rusted. Will continue welding them this weekend. Cut out the driverside floor to, gonna fix that next.
