Finally got the wolf set up and working properly :cool:

Finished the arch, well the front anyway. Just got to cut the rear arch and wheel well section out of the donor.

Is that the one you found in a 'woodland' setting and releived the owner off for a few sheckles???

If it turns over - there is potential!:D
 
Back on the welding before I go away.

Picked up the flebay purchase of a fiberglass headlining. Fooking thing wouldn't fit in my stupid car so had to hatchet strap it to the roof then climb through the window. To embarrassed to take a picture of it on the roof.

Looks good though.

Set my mig up to gas as well, so much better than gasless. I am nearly happy with the welding now :p

:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:

But after I come back from holiday :D
 
I'm back, saw a lot of jacked up V8 pickups on my hols. Some looked good while others looked.....:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

Can't believe how long its taking me to do the patching work, little bits of steel cut, shon welded then on to the next bit.

Finished a few bits off today and started to do the bottom of the A pillar.

Hoping to get this side finished and get a good start on the other side this weekend. Look forward to doing some flat horizontal welding :p:p:p
 
Finished the A pillar, but forgot to take a pic :frusty:

As that side is finished apart from the wheel well which will be cut out of the donor. I attacked the drivers side with a 7" grinder:mil52::bounce:

The previous owner decided to repair the arch with filler, not helpful

Body mounts not looking good on this side.

Was hoping not to have to replace the rear mount but it's not looking good

Going to leave the footwell until the body mounts are back on to try and keep the shell as straight as possible.
