Like the bottoms of the doors and the brace at the rear of front fenders?
Oh and under the sill plates. I dig these kind of mods.

Got most of the balancer set up done. Just needs a few tweeks and will be good to go. Will powder coat black when finished.
I am going to get the engine running in stock mode before I put the SC system on. Want to make sure no unexpected problems show up and end up chasing my tail. lol

Spent about an hour grinding welds and drilling holes. :blob:
More holes and a couple welds to grind flat. Wish it would warm up here so I can do some blasting outside. Hood will be pretty much done soon. Then I can seal it up!!! :cheers:

- Looks like that must have been a real bear drilling some of those holes without dinging the outside panel.

Spent another 1&1/2 hrs drilling holes and grinding the welds on the bottom of the hood. I have decided I am going to take the inner support out. Too much surface rust on the unprotected surfaces that were behind each other. This will help drilling in areas that are too shallow for the hole saw. Then I can blast all the rust issues and paint to match the rest of the car where you can see through the holes. No pics for now, suffer. lol :finga:

Took the hood apert this morning. I was surprised how few spot welds there were. About 4-5 per side. Easy peasy. I am glad I did this. Too much surface rust in there to try and get rid of without taking apart.

This weekend gonna try and disassemble FrankenCuda and put it back on the spit to finish the few minor things left on the bottom and seal it up somehow. Haven't decided which way to go yet. Body color or black to show off the green better.
Still have to redo/build some kind of rear bumper too.

It's my color!!! LOL Decided body will be the new Challenger green. Almost sublime but with some pearl in the paint. FrankenCuda can't be Franken without the green! :glasses7:
