Got the patches welded in, ground down the welds, seam-sealed the air hats and patches before welding, the applied the Rust Bullet Black Shell. Just gotta fold down the cowl and weld it back in place now.

So happy this is finally going back together and those patches fit so well!

Got the cowl folded back down and welded in-place. Then ‘blasted the ‘ends’, treated the insides with Rust Bullet, and welded them down as well. Just gotta grind the welds, zap down the cowl/apron tie-ins and more Rust Bullet and call it done (next Saturday).

The cowl is Done! Got everything patched, cleaned up, and Rust Bullet’d. Now that it’s done, I can move onto the trunk (tomorrow).

Here’s the passenger side – had to patch a couple small places today as well as weld on the apron extensions. Slowly but surely, the ‘new’ look of the car is making its way to the back.

Driver side all cleaned up and made new with Rust Bullet Black Shell. It’s sad that a new coat of Rust Bullet makes the old stuff look… well… old. Gonna clean it all up and spray on another coat later anyway, but it’s protected for now, and that’s the important part.
