| The rear wheel wells were prepared by
cutting to smoothen the bend and fillet soldering. |
 
|
| The wells were soldered to the body at
the inside and their bottom parts trimmed to mach the chassis contour.
The fillet solder was then ground with Dremel. |
 
|
| This is how it looks after grinding. |
|
|
The areas where the doors would be
were marked to be cut. They were cut off by Dremel.
|
 
|
| Now back to the doors. The internal panels
were cut as a development, and bent to shape with pliers. A test-fitting
to see how they fit. Note the gap left for the glass. |
 
|
| The door panels were joined with solder.
Pre-soldering was made on the mating edges with soldering iron. The parts
were joined by applying the heat of a torch. |
 
|
| A test-fit with the doors to see if everything
is OK. |
|
| The rocker panels are prepared by cutting
out a development and bending with pliers. This is a critical part because
it has curvatures in all 3 axes. Note point solders inside. These were
put at the places of irregular protrutions after bending, as filling material.
They were ground smooth afterwards. |
 
|
| The rocker panels were soldered to the
body with the doors in place. |
|
| The windshield panel in raw formed shape.
The bendings were made with round pliers. |
|
| The windshield panel is soldered into
place . |
|
| Imperfections in the bends ground by Dremel. |
|
| The recess panels between the floorpan
and the rocker panels are formed and soldered into place. |
