Rapom's Rocket - just another Duster build thread
First 2 panels turned into 4 just to close up the front of this hole. A friend gave me a basic little sheet metal brake missing some key parts. I almost spent more time getting it operational again as I did making all the panels. To bad it only helped on a few bends. Most of the fab work was done by hand with an assortment of implements, a vice and some colorful language at times. Sorry only have photos of the first three panels. The fourth is the grey one in the center (last pic). Some were welded in and some riveted. After having some fun trying to get a grinder on some of the welds I rethunk my plan and decided rivets were the answer.
