I got no pics, the glass body is sitting in a trailer and I'm in the process of building the frame from scratch, Im using some of threads over at the hamb to reference. sometimes I wish I would have bought repop frame rails but for $105 worth of steel im coming out ahead and its quite the learning experience.
I'll post some pics of the Frame rails as soon as I can.

I'll be making a cut the length of the reveal, then bending both edges down and welding it up, grind smooth and sand.
from what I've seen in others doing this the rail likes to bow so I'll have to heat and shrink to get it straight again, then I need to build a jig for the body contour, make pie cuts, bend to fit the jig and weld up.Last edited by Thegrappler; 09-20-2010 at 08:48 AM.
".......So sanded it all down and resprayed. ......" Been there. done that on a couple of paint jobs over the years. Usually took me a couple of days to get over being mad before I started...
