Re: 1969 Custom/10 clean up

finally recovered from my eye thing, when I went to the specialist, he was stil unsure what caused it, He figured it could have been a viral thing.. Oh well, I've recovered and spent some time in the garage again.
Didn't do to much, because I'm still unsure how to proceed..lets call it designers block I did make the cut-outs for the bedsides, so I could tuck the bumper in and see what it would look like


I made the bumper arms, and now have to figure out a way to align in all, so it soits straight and in the middle.


with the cut-outs done, it already looks a lot better


but I'm still not happy with the side view and this is where my creativity comes to a shocking hold, I just cant see how this will clean up nicely



I took a picture from under the car just to see where the bumper arms would end up


ofcourse at a certain point the bumper fell over ripping the exhaust rubber, but thats an easy fix.

to get my mind off things I had a look at a local car gathering "Kings Cruise" near Amsterdam and despite the crappy weather there was quite a nice turn up.





















and just to show you there are people in the Netherlands with no taste..
