    Been working my ass off to get one rear arch finished, its now fully welded double skinned and ready for some finish panel beating. The arches are bay window VW Bus.

    Still have not decided on rear lights but think I will probablyfab some up from scratch.

    Detail of the conduit wrapping the bumper end was still wondering how to finish up here.

    the rear bumper mods are looking good, looks almost like it came from the factory that way.

    Only trouble is the other side is really nasty, here have cut out the rot/filler/
    glass/newspaper/and rot! at least most of it.

    This shot is looking into the rear of the O/S rear wheel arch and yes that is the inside of the boot and no that piece of angle is not attached

    looks good....to help bend the conduit. put some sand in there and bend it. it won't kink that way.
     
  6. you obviously never heard the expresion "you can't polish a turd!"
    I mean this in the best way too.
    You're on track to prove that statement wrong. Keep polishing - you've damn put a lot of work in to that car man.
