Default Progress report

I thought I would post a update on my project. Earlier this year I was asked If I would bring my buck to Oblong Il for there anual metalmeet as a group project. I ended up reshaping some of the buck to get some of the lines to flow a little better. I feel we made good progress and the body is looking good.



Here is a pic of the hammerform I made to form the blister so the webers will clear. We used it to form the blister into the upper middle panel instead of forming a blister and welding it into the completed tilt front end.

Some of the guys wanted to know If we could have a spring meet to work on the coupe project. It looks like we are going to have a May meet in Oblong to get more work done. If some of you scratch builder want to learn to shape metal . You might want to look into coming to the spring meet.
