Big change in perspective... I transform the 1958 1200 convertible into an oval convertible.
I also found a machine to form NIBBLER sheet metal

The installation of the new front wing counters is a great step forward for the project. It's starting to look like something 😊

Thanks for posting pictures and the update, this is looking good.

Truthfully, I really, very much prefer photographs, I don't click the videos because I just don't like sitting through them, I'd rather scroll through still images and stare at them and analyze them. Also, if I recall from past views, you narrate in French, so I don't comprehend them, so I miss out on that content.

And great that you're putting the pics in TS gallery so they're preserved in your thread.

Thank you for your comment, I try to take the time to post pictures because I agree with you, photos are different from videos. If, however, you want to understand what I'm saying about the videos on your phone or computer, you can turn on the English 😉 subtitles

Thanks It makes me happy
It's not my job at all, just a passion. I always wanted to learn how to form sheet metal, and then I went for it.
Have a good day
