Project clean machine?

I'm on a roll with this metal shaping! This is the outer lower section of the unibody rail. Lined right up damn near perfectly. This is the inner section that the cross member would bolt into. Needs a little finishing up. All in all the metal shaped really nicely. Now I need to clean them up, weld some flange nuts to the inner section and epoxy them before install.- 99 replies

Taking baby steps but progress is progress. Took the stencils I made with sharpie and cut them out into shapes! Took them over to the metal break and bent them to shape. I'm very happy with how that turned out.- 99 replies

I might have the tail light harness. It may take me a bit to try and find it though.

It would either be a switch plate for fog lights/transmission switch(if auto) or a blank plate.

After a hiatus, I need an opinion...

I started at the rocker. My thoughts were to have the inner rocker replaced firsts there would be no working around the floor. And I can put the floor in and work it to the rocker instead. I'm leaving the outer off until the floor is burned in so I can clean up the burn marks from the welder on the inner rocker. Then put the outer panel on -

Hey very sharp of you! These are indeed ones that came off a sport bar! I even have the switch plate for them too! But I just used it as an example. -

Other nuances! The hockey puck arm rest chrome trim, including the little diamonds for the ends! Go figure mine ran off somewhere.. Those marchelle fog lights! And mud flaps! -
So before I pull it off just wanted to show you its condition. It had been a while since i looked at this closer. The cable does move, no binding but the retaining end for the carb doesn't have the tabs anymore. And the sheathing is a little worn. I don't know if you will find one thats really in any better shape but I just wanted to point that out in case you were looking for something better.

I can pull it off for you. Been trying to sell the Trans and tcase to no luck. Will likely end up tossing it, but if there's anything else you want off it let me know.

Well back to Candace again, working on that efforts of curing her of her cancer. Removing plates and cutting out the unibody rust. The cancer. Plate removed! And out unibody section removed. From there the last inner section was cut. I still have a spot to cut out. But for the most part its all been removed and I can start making my patch panels to put back in.- 99 replies
