We are loving the jigged Rotisserie.,,
We came up with a great tong configuration for the tricky spots on the heater caps.
We also scored a pair of rear dimples that we dropped at the blaster to get all clean up along with the now opened up decklid

Wow! Shocked , that doesn't look like just blast media piled up in there, once again worth the time to explore every nook and cranny and do it right, nice work!

After stripping the body we discovered some small holes and weak metal in the bottom end of the passenger glove box. This had been hidden by bodywork previously. Jason decided it was best to remove this area and fabricate new replacement pieces. It will be two pieces joined at the corner radius.

We are real happy with the results so far. Now that it is off the Jig we can fill in the blank areas with spot welds were The pattern was interrupted slighty at the supports were it rest on the Jig. Stay tuned to see the completed process 😎
