No rookie mistakes today

3/6/2015

I've got to pull the cowl off one more time to hammer out two little low spots in the top and to finish welding in the cowl to fender brackets.  I just tested the patch with some heat to see if it will take lead and it looked great.  The bead roller came in real handy making the patch.  I have to thank my loan shark for that.  It was well worth the two toes.

I screwed up

So I picked up this morning where I left off yesterday and I ended up making a stupid rookie mistake.  I had the patch in the cowl nice and blended, better than factory.  So what did do?  I unbolted it, took it over to the table, and started cleaning up the back side by laying into it like a madman with the grinder. Long story short, I oil canned the hell out of my patch with too much heat from the grinder.  So here I am back to making another patch from scratch.  On a good note, the bead roller finally showed up today.

Still a bit of blending to do yet.  I'll pick up where I left off tomorrow.

Got everything fitted, only took a little modification.  Managed to get the cowl to fender brackets fitted back as well, and filled the obsolete holes in the bottom cowl.  Tomorrow I will be able to fill the stock wiper motor hole and hopefully nail this cowl back together.
