Robert, thanks for taking the time to take these pictures and document this. I have been thinking in my head how i'm going to make the lower cowl panel on my COE where the hood corner meets the cowl, and you just gave me great ideas. I can even find some round stock like you used to work my piece. I've repaired a few windshield frames and it would have been a lot faster to make these new pieces and weld it in. Thanks again!
