I didn’t get nearly where I wanted to this weekend but progress is progress.
I finished the trunk cutouts after routing the RH exhaust pipe. It seems like it took forever, definitely something that was slow and challenging to me
Once the RH was done, I just made a paper template and rolled the mirror image for the LH side.
Cutting and tacking the LH side took about a quarter of the time it took to do the right. It is nice to have the trunk roughed-in. I probably won’t finish the welding until I have all the other parts removed for bodywork. It will be much easier that way.
I moved on to start working on the LH tail pipe. It is pretty much just a copy the RH side, except where it is mirror image. There are quite a few compound angles and I got the pieces rough cut but not trimmed to the final shape.
I lost my cleco pliers, shop was dirty and I am tired so I quit for this weekend.
Next week I will just keep plugging away on the exhaust, hopefully I won't make a career out of it!
