Doug's Studebaker update

I left these holes on the side of the cab where the fenders mounted until last, there was also a weird stamped shape to deal with.
I cut out the entire piece and built a new one that lines up with the cowl and at the bottom with the rockers.
Then I added this flared piece, it lines up with the flare on the hood side.
Then I built these outside pieces for the grille. The stock truck never had anything like this so I had to use my imagination and create a piece that would fit and flow.
Here is the grille with the new outside pieces.

Goalie Mask

I painted this goalie mask for my cousin Kris

Marking the chop.
3" cut out, aligned front pillars, welded and ground down.
Cut through roof to make the back line up.
I had to widen the top of thr back window, here I'm putting it back together.
Back window back in one piece.
Roof top filled and door tops put back on.
