Hello FLJerry. Thank you very much for those comments. Bringing CJ back to life has taken quite a bit of time and there is still a bunch to do. Unfortunately not all my ideas or modifications have worked out as well as they could have. One of those was the first fan shroud. But it was not a lost cause because I did learn something about working with fiber glass. There are several other builds on this forum that have tilt front clips and they are all different. Just like you I needed to get closer to the motor to work on it. Laying across the fenders was just not an option any more.

Thanks FLJerry for looking in on my thread and good luck on building your "Bucket List" 55 tilt front. It will be fun.

Earl
