Spent four hours in the emergency room last night. Went to the hospital around 10 and didn't get home till 2:15am this morning.... couple xrays, some shots and lots of pain.

They say I have Pleuritis. It's in inflammation of the pleura. Thats the tissue around the lungs I guess? I can't breathe in deep or turn my body or its hurts and feels like a sharp pain as if I had a broken rib.


But that didn't stop me from being a car nut! I came home at 2:15am and at 8am I was up and in the garage working on the car.. luckily they gave me some shots to relieve the pain



notice my sweet medical bracelet lol



haha anyways
Phil cam down again and we kept on moving along







I started cleaning out this crap. I'm going to weld it closed this week



and then I started filling in the dimples on the firewall







damn theres a lot of random dimples






and I also started sanding off the paint to start work on the passenger side



like a giant green booger lol Waiting to dry so we can sand it down

Spent 6 hours in the garage today................. my fingers tried to commit suicide to get out of sanding

Anyways here is some of the firewall


and then I did some more filling to smooth it more



I think the back wall is going to turn out good. And the corner is a bitch but looking good




Spent a lot of time on the driver side today




and more fill/sanding


finally almost done



did some filling on the passenger side strut tower


also worked in this bitch of a corner





and finally some other misc parts

not a fan of this shaving of the bay. looks like its gonna be wayyyyyyyy to smooth. lil covering of the holes is fine where it looks factory but this looks almost toy like. just have to wait and see. . keep up the good work

filled in some more of this area



and some of the back firewall



but spent most all my time right here:
