This is starting to look like a major build with all the cutting and re-fabing thats going to happen. Great stuff.

Yep sure is a big job. ..
Jon behind the B pillar we are going to cut the rear door down, hang part of it on the original B pillar then cut and mate a smaller part of the back half of the door and when all lined up seam weld it shut to give it some strength. .. because then the rear arch is moving into that area too
Tims Fabricator man is on this part

thank God.
Plenty of interest down there on this car. ...Tim said he could have sold it a few times in the last few weeks.

Also now its torn right down there is very little rust, just rear arches. .. which I need a similar or mopar replacement for. ...ANYONE... CUT OFFS ???

Nobody noticed pukka Radio delete car..no provision for it ali trim cover plate no speaker either
It had its future planned from the start

Speaker grille taken out and stored because they are very fragile plastic.... especially after being sun soaked for years,
and silly money for a undamaged one which it was.

Christ. Never seen an arch with that much filler !!!
Rest of the car looks good.
I'm gonna love following this thread. Really steering to appreciate these older race cars.
Keep the pics coming Steve. Great project

At the moment it is "All Filler, No Killer"; but I am sure that will change a lot over the comming weeks!!

Should be a VERY interesting build

Absolutely! I was sceptical when you first mentioned doing a 63 AWB (being a year too early

) but if it comes out anything like that one you posted on the previous page....

Good on ya Steve, should be great when it's done

From page one 'cut, shunted, I had to read that twice

I remember when you were offering this for something like 3K plus a few years ago and thinking 'that would be a great super stocker'. Never expected it to get to this stage. Nice!

Thanks Steve thats what i was looking for....my computer must have a cold or something its not very good at finding stuff

Might be a while yet Miles you know what im like

Yes thats the most filler ive ever seen in a panel....only its expanding foam so kept the race weight good

Strange really cos the rest of the car is solid ??

Yes Dunc it being cut back to good metal and gonna buy those panels Steve has posted
