1967 Cuda FB project

-
Like the bottoms of the doors and the brace at the rear of front fenders?
Oh and under the sill plates. I dig these kind of mods.
 
Thanks looking great!! Super Cool!!. The graphics look good too depending on color??

- Looks like that must have been a real bear drilling some of those holes without dinging the outside panel.
 
Spent another 1&1/2 hrs drilling holes and grinding the welds on the bottom of the hood. I have decided I am going to take the inner support out. Too much surface rust on the unprotected surfaces that were behind each other. This will help drilling in areas that are too shallow for the hole saw. Then I can blast all the rust issues and paint to match the rest of the car where you can see through the holes. No pics for now, suffer. lol :finga:

Took the hood apert this morning. I was surprised how few spot welds there were. About 4-5 per side. Easy peasy. I am glad I did this. Too much surface rust in there to try and get rid of without taking apart.

Hope you can post the weight of this hood when your done drilling holes.
I always wanted to do this. Nice to see you getting after it.

Fitting for FrankenCuda! Ha!! :D

Oh, and I am going to weigh it. Have a stocker to compare.
 
Very nicely done - good thing the factory didn't epoxy them together, and just used that expanding foam rubber stuff which splits easy.

This weekend gonna try and disassemble FrankenCuda and put it back on the spit to finish the few minor things left on the bottom and seal it up somehow. Haven't decided which way to go yet. Body color or black to show off the green better. :D
Still have to redo/build some kind of rear bumper too.
