Just looking, you would never know it was wrecked, beautiful before and now...Jim

**JML55** · 06-15-2016, 10:43 PM

Yes it's out of the shop

**bobinbc** · 06-16-2016, 01:03 AM

Wow really looks great! I like the decision to go with a 57 Chevy hood this time, makes the truck look really clean.

Since you are now an expert at assembling these trucks I have a question. Why did you decide to put the fenders on before the doors? Wouldn't it be more chance of chipping the paint in that order?

Obviously you know what you're doing, just curious for when I have to do it next time...thanks!

Its actually the same type of hood I had on the first time around. For the fenders and doors well I had everything mucked up and lined up previously and drilled small aligning holes in the door hinges so they go back at the exact location when you reassembly.

**JML55** · 06-20-2016, 04:05 PM

Getting front end alignment done today.

Kim57 · 06-20-2016, 09:18 PM

Very cool.
Kim

**JML55** · 06-21-2016, 12:58 AM

Well I think I'm done, still a few little things to do but it's license and insured, drove it to work today.

**oldman3** · 06-21-2016, 08:54 AM

Looks great, and driving it again is the best thing...Jim

ChuckDriver · 06-21-2016, 11:06 AM

Looking good, congrats on doing a great job, again!

Kim57 · 06-21-2016, 11:09 AM
