Well we made some good progress on this over the last few weeks. The shock tower had damage that needed to be fixed. Because the towers are double plated steel, you have to return that to the same or better condition.



And here its cut out.


Once it was out, it was time to do what the factory didn't. Cavity wax!



We then welded in the first plate (16 gauge), applied weld through primer on both sides. After that, it was time to install the second plate (also 16 gauge).







We have a new reproduction front clip coming. But until it gets here, we are repairing the under damage.




And now that the new floors, rockers and lower quarters are repaired. We under coated the car. This way Group 2 can install the new suspension bits.
