Not only is Dan a craftsman, he is a great person. Our community is fortunate to have him in it. Thanks for all you do.

One of the reasons I bought this NOS panel . Going to use this car to make nice patterns for a few of my customer cars in the shop. You can see damage and shape caved in ! . So I cobled this pinch clamp to pull damage. Made a nice pattern to transfer to other cars. Now I can start the concept of the new bumpers I will shape for my car. Never liked how the bumper's are not in line with side trim , So I am going to raise bumper to fix that.

Will the engine surround piece be a knock off of the NOS piece with all the holes and nutserts for the latch?
A previous owner cut the surround out of my car to facilitate engine removal or it had a T-4 motor at one time. My supports are in great shape although your dimple-die'd versions look outstanding.
What are your plans for the release cable tube?
