 Posted: Mon Apr 06, 2009 7:22 pm Post subject: Type 3 Tilt front end |
 |
|
I'm looking into making a tilt front end for my '68 Squareback because it's pretty rusted up up there and i don't have a lot of money so I'm going to be creating my own tilt front end out of my parts '69 squareback. Only thing i don't have is a pair of good fenders. I'd like to make a fiberglass front end or find one but no one sells them around here.
Anyone have suggestions about how this feat should be done? I think I have an idea but just wanting to see what everyone else thinks.
(Also please no purist remarks... Looking for help not flaming because I'm modifying my car.)

By the time you're done making this tilt front end you'll have spent twice as much as just fixing it right.
just FYI.
