Ok Lee well I had a chance to head down today and have a sneak peek at what has been done since you dropped it off. Martin just started working on it yesterday late in the day and so far this is what he has been able to accomplish in 24hrs........
Whole front end has been taken off and sanding has begun...
Hood has been masked off how you specified, he's sanding it down and getting ready to seal and block to be able to get all the imperfections of the original gel coat out. Same process is being done on the trunk.
You asked to have the mirrors plugged so here you go, metal plates have been cut and will get welded on (non of that bondo crap)
Now for the good stuff...... You wanted some custom work done to the fenders to clear them CE's, so far this is what he has done....
- Made his own mold to extend the fender .5 inches. Once it is all done, it will all get molded and get its final trim once it has hardened. He has only done one side so far but so far it looks great.
- One picture shows the added clearance from the old width and the blue you see is the added clearance. Second picture shows the mold sitting on the fender and finally the last one is the mold itself off the fender............. Hope you like what you see so far.
This is all I have for you so far Lee
