Petemattersen's Shoebox gets a facelift.

Well its not done of course, but i got my new fenders trimmed down and started grafting them onto the shoebox fenders this morning. Here's some pics of what i got so far. Not gonna weld them yet as i like to give it a day or two in case a better idea arises. Looks like i will be filling the front end with a 51 merc grill. Back to the shop!

 

Cool ! ! !

 

Looks pretty sweet

 

The merc grill is gonna look great on there. Looking forward to seeing what's next.

 

thanks for the kind words guys, got my p*** door gap set pretty good this afternoon, ready to start doing the other side and then i will get to welding the buick fenders on.thanks again
Matt
