Re: 1957 Chevy truck re-rebuild

As I mentioned in my last post, the more I looked at the front of this truck I could see the outline of a shark.

To do what I want to do I have to get rid of the front turn signals. My plan is to get a set of the headlights that have the turn signal built into them. I haven't bought them yet, I hope they work as I plan.

Ok, to get rid of the turn signal mounting pads I had to mark and cut.


I didn't follow the line that I made with the sharpie.

I know it's a slow way to use the drill to make the cut, but it creates no heat and the 3/4" rotary brr cleans the edge with no problem.


My goal is to smooth this round corner and get rid of the flat spot that was for the turn signal to mount to. Once I smoothed the hole with the brrr I cut a piece of sheet metal to fill the hole.


More to follow.....
