Well. Keep in mind this is amateur work here, never done anything like this before. This is my first car. Here is what happend:

Good fender below:

So, after a couple weeks of thinking about what I was going to do with the car, I decided I was going to fix it. I ripped all the crap off and discovered that asshole rust. What a towel rust is. Like, c'mon.


Let's kill all that mofo'n rust:


I did a much better job than the above two pics, but I didn't take pics every lil step ah the way. After grinding down rust to the metal, it becomes time for paint:




The hood I'm going to paint soon:

Then last week, on Thursday I believe... I wanted to see if the car worked..


So I was like awesome, because she started first try, so naturally I ripped around the block like the car is pictured above. It was pretty sweet with the 150lb weight reduction. My car definately turned some heads that day.
I'm still waiting for my rad support/cross piece to dry from paint. Then from there it's just buttoning everything back together.
