Re: My 1965 build thread

Started working on the rear wheel tubs. I used a zizz wheel to cut off bolts that were spinning. Then scraped all undercoating off.



Some prior attempts at body work by PO's



I used this air hammer bit (it's my mobile plannishing hammer) to help massage the metal back into shape. I used a big piece of iron (frame rack) as a back plate while using the hammer.



Here is the metal almost back in shape and some of the tools used in the process. I also used a ball peen hammer.



Here is what the other side looked like when I started on it.



Also primed the column.



And then based with the same color as the gauge pods. This is base only no pix of it cleared yet.
