So for the final touch on the crazy sheetmetal bod mods, the front of the car needs to be widened. As of now the entire rear clip was widened 6" and I widened the front clip 8" at the firewall. To keep the car looking proportional I think the front fenders ought to be widened out a bit.
I thought I would go 8" to match my work at the firewall but turns out 6" looked the best and fell across the front tires pretty well.
This is all happening in a very off-angle gravel driveway though so well see.
This work gives me a chance to demo the lapped fender stuff from earlier and redo my hinge for the front clip. The hinge for the front clip was shotty so its good to redo this. It held up fine over the last year but some of the steel was lapped and just some of the fitting was rough. Im happier with this hinge now, its much simpler and clean.
