The repairs to the front consisted of the windshield pillars where they meet the cowl air intake panel, the radiator core support and the fender aprons.
Here the repairs to the windshield pillar have been done. I should have taken before pix so you could see the difference but didn't. It was nothing big.....just a small rust hole at the bottom of each pillar where it meets the cowl. These were the result of water getting up under the vinyl top and just sitting there.
In this pic the core support has already been straightened. It was pushed in from a minor accident and I used a porta-power to push it back out. It came out straight which surprised me. I thought for sure that I would also have some minor bumping to do to get it straight. You get lucky sometimes. It also shows the condition of the left side fender apron which is why I replaced them too. The right side was the same.
Here are pix of the RH fender apron removed. I used a piece of 1/2" electrical conduit, hammered the ends flat and drilled holes in both ends for bolts to make a support brace. I wanted the original distance between the cowl and radiator support maintained for correct positioning of the fenders when they are put back on.
