This car was bad, very bad. It had been involved in a front end collision and somebody had decided to cut the car into 2 sections across the middle. Unfortunately when the welded the car back together they made a complete hash of it and bailed out. This is where I come into the story. I bought the car as it is in the first photograph and decided I could save the car and make an Eleanor clone out of it (yes I know I'm not a big fan, but it'll make money once sold lol)
Anyway, I got the car up onto the jig and set it up straight, welded an entire new front end, one piece floor section and finally a replacement roof section was welded into place. Believe me when I say that this car is straight and very rigid with sub frame connectors and X brace all fitted up under the car.
It's still at the workshop waiting to be finished but the car isn't a priority right now, but it will be finished eventually.

. I do like that you haven't used the standard E hood. I am not a fan of that hood scoop at all.
