Got a brace on the rear of the hood, and the pins in. Trimmed some from the side. I want to use Dzus fasteners on the front, if they get here in time. Lots of reshaping and reinforcments to go.

All i got to do today was to cut down the old hood brace, move it forward and weld it in.

I got it roughed to shape and size, started welding it together. Don't know how to put those contours in it, but i will try beating it with a hammer.
and found a bogus star metric socket i could cut down to raise the hood ornament a little higher.

Got the grill shell bolted down, decided to use one of my hand made hood ornaments.
Have to raise the hood ornament, remove, re-weld and re-bondo the grill shell, but now i know where the hood has to sit.

The guy rehabing the house next door, had some lumber left over, and some time, so they threw up a car port in seven hours.
Weee.. Shade at last. I will probably wrap it in plastic for the winter, almost like a garage and everything.
And i used up a sheet of sheathing to make a new locking outdoor tool box.
