1966 Dodge Dart
Latest update, I got some shop time tonight and hopefully I completed the body work and fill that is satisfactory on the drivers fender. I have a body guy coming over later this week to check it out and let me know if I am done with the first fender or if I have to add more and sand that to the floor! Body work is such a slow process.
In the mean time I decided to go ahead and weld the holes shut in the doors interior that would locate the old Dart emblem that I will be replacing with a modern Dart emblem.
Now its time to start on the Passenger fender so I welded all the belt trim holes shut, welded the antenna hole shut and the holes for the 2 trims at the front. Then I cut the rusted area out from the lower part of fender.
I tacked the patch piece in so far but will need to take some time tonight to weld everything up. With the one side being so narrow at the flange side it is going to take a lot of time and patience! I will post more pics as I go.
