I like the jack mount you made. Better than stock in a couple of ways. Funny that one of the few times a guy uses duct tape on a duct it is still the wrong fix.

As always nice work and nice documentation.

It's time for an update:

Prepped the rocker support for welding at the right side.



Here is it welded in.



Next mounting the fender and the door to make sure the outer rocker fits, and to fit the door post.



Looks like there is something missing.



I found some pictures to see what the piece looks like.



So I made that piece and welded it in.



Test fit for all the pieces.



Got the outer rocker welded in.



After the rocker is welded I fitted the piece of the quarter panel section.



And here is the piece complete welded it and cleaned up.



Now it's time to turn that car and move to the left side.



The outer rocker came after the few tack welds are ground off.



After I did the right side this didn't surprise me.





All these great designed pieces are history now.





After all the bad pieces are removed, it didn't look that bad on the inside.



More to come.

Cheers
Engelbert
