    Man you take a lot of time getting things right. I had a similar situation on mine, but I filled the bucket with bondo. Hats off to you.

    I love you attention to detail and lack of body filler. I know some is always needed BUT cleaning up the backside of the bucket and slicing the ridge of the fender done amazing results.. GREAT VIDEO!

    Excellent video. I have a 70 Chevelle and bought aftermarket fenders and headlight bezels and they definitely didn't line up. I definitely will use what you did as an example to get that tight fit! Keep showing us how to do it right. Thanks.

    I'm really glad you are doing this convertible because you do stuff that I would never figure out to do to fix this blend of new and old parts back into a car. Fortunately for me, my original front fenders saved but I had to buy new headlight assemblies. I trial fitted all that before I took it back apart to replace the core support. Since I got the headlights, grille and grille molding aligned well I removed that whole thing as an assembly so hopefully it will go back on there. I have a problem making my valance corners line up with the front fenders and it appears that the valance flanges on my fenders were mostly chopped off. I'm going to have to cut out templates and make new flanges to mount the front valance and of course, they have to have the right shape so the lines match up.
    I sometimes wish you would have more problems on what you are doing so I can learn more stuff, LOL. Sorry but the more you do, the more I learn and I am obviously like a lot of other people watching you build this car. I hope you don't mind me doing this but I put a thread out on the VMF which I am a long time member of and there were quite a few people that knew your website. I politely shamed them for not contributing to your Patreon account. Hopefully that brought you some more contributors and there are several thousand people roaming through the VMF.

    anytime you can go from needing 1/4 inch of filler down to 1/16 or less to make it look great and fit great it's a huge win . Great work as always ! i been using your tips on my 66 F100 cab and it is looking much better .

    Thankyou for showing this. On mine I have 4 original buckets to chose from...all with missing tabs and have been toying with low temp white metal welding using my son's toy diecast toys as donor material. It's great to know I can at least go to aftermarket and modify as you have when my approach doesn't cut the mustard.
    Your videos showing your thinking process and approach are perfect... Thankyou.

  • @thomasbraden2450

    The eyebrow (top) of my right side headlight door comes down at a sharp angle instead of forming a gradual transition front the fender. The result is a gap between the corner of the hood and the headlight door. Can the eyebrow be “bent” up or reshaped by hand easily?

    • @JoDaddysGarage

      I have reshaped them. If it's an aftermarket hood, it will likely bend easier.
