After completing a ton och chores and service work on the yard and all, I took the time
to work some on the rear fenders.

The1/4" bar welded to the new driver's side fender edge piece.



The old fender edge cut away to ease replacement. The back end of the fender is fixed
to the front of the fender and to the floor.



The pie cut fender for reference, or  "before" shot.



The new edge tacked into place.



The curve of the fender edge or lip looks fairly smooth and consistent now.
A lot of welding, grinding and hammering to do, but so far it looks promising.

Nice!

With Trump getting rid of the subsidy to wind farms they will go away as soon as the ones already up break down. Solar already did that once. My first solar panels came from a solar farm that shot down when the Federal subsidy was cut off in the '80s.  just replaced them a year or so ago.

We are on a trip now and are in Amarillo. TX. I saw more solar panels and fewer wind turbines until we crossed into Texas. There is something special about the high plains that is just ruined by those things.

 I fought against a plan to place over 90 turbines on the mountain range behind our place in Nevada. Basically all I had to do was make a slide show of the mountains from different parts on our area with some shots of other mountains with giant turbines on top. When the county commissioners saw that they would be seen from almost everywhere in the county as well as 4 other counties and near lake Tahoe it was a major part of rejecting the project. I have a wind plant in my yard I bought from Australia in the '70s. It is still there to remind me of one of the dumbest things I ever did. Our place is solar powered with a generator backup. it runs all I need except a good compressor.

Hmmmm maybe?

Thanks

Have seen folks using cellophane to seal the lids, especially POR15.  Found a post where the individual used a sponge and thinner (fresh paint) to create the patina...kinda makes sense.

BTW: This color and patina (not overdone) has caught my eyes for years now...not sure how to describe the color.  I really like it..blue/green??

That one! I remember that car vividly, I wsa so impressed with it, a rusty car that actually had a fiberglass body. I subscribed to Street Rodder for a few years in the twothousands. The patina was very well made.
