Day 71/72/73 - 4/20-22/12

Very productive weekend we just had. Got the entire rear window channel in and almost all welded around. All the measurements I took before cutting the rust out helped the fitment of the metal a lot. I now have an almost done Monte/Chevelle hybrid. Friday evening:

Plug welded the area where the rubber will sit. All the tacks from last time.

Trying to see and hold it because I'm a lefty.

Calm cool Saturday night, Dad broke out the bug zapper and plugged it into the garage door plug.

Finished up the tacks Sunday.

We also got the last channel piece in, you can see the where the seam will be along the top.

Tried an electric angle grinder instead of the pneumatic grinder and it's more efficient. I'll use it along the rest of the opening. Monday the 23rd, ordered some molding clips from Dan's Classics because Gold Eagle was out. New vinyl for the top will be about $130.

     We're coming! Stay tuned...
