Had a great car day today.
Went over to QMP and picked up my mod motor that had been cleaned so that I can fab some motor mounts for the Mustang.
And got back on rust patrol on the Fairlane.
Since no one makes the cowl sheet metal you have to build your own.
I know it may seem crazy but I really enjoy this kind of work.
It's very "zen" if you know what I mean.
Kinda like when you're up fishing in the mountains and your kid gets a big tangle you have to fix.
No sweat 'cause it 's beautiful and you're fishing with your kid.
Anyway, I enjoy metal work and anything you have to take your time with.
Since I work out of a small garage and don't have room for a lot of fab tools I've developed my own little way to get compound bends.
Cut, bend, weld.
It also makes it good and strong since you can overlap. Since it's in the cowl, no harm no foul.
