    well I got to fenders a while back but the pass side had dents from a door swinging into it so I decided to work on that today...

    I figured since I was already workin on it I would make it match the door better. I made a pattern of the door, then I cut out the inner fender brace and tacked the pattern to the fender, worked my dents and re welded the inner brace back to the fender.

    to the frame it self.... I notched it in the front for the tie rods, cut and lowered the front horns, and I notched the rear for the axle.

    as for the body drop.... not to be a smart ass but I built a new floor. The old floor was to far gone to save, so I built the floor and body dropped it in one step. I started by sectioning the fire wall 2 1/2", hope that helps
