Bodywork is underway

Things got underway in earnest this past weekend -- If you've looked at the pictures in the archive, FB2191 had a decent bit of damage to the front and passenger side -- specifically the front fenders, transmission cover, fence, hood, passenger side doors and c-pillar.

Well, Joe and Pat have made phenominal progress on the front of the car -- here are several pictures:

This is the rough-finished driver side fender -- the fender had to be pounded out, straightened, then welded together.

Here's the passenger side fender -- it wasn't quite as bad as the driver side.

And this is the transmission cover -- Joe had to completely rebuild the front piece, cut out the bad metal, and weld the fabricated piece in. Not bad work for a union guy!
