RE: Sum_Fing_Wong's Project Levin
Welp it's been quite some time since my last update, there has been some major progress with the Levin! Thanks to my friend lending me his rotisserie, I was able to finish some additional bracing, as well as figuring out my trunk latch and lastly I was able to do a final look over! I've also started an instagram account which I update a little more regularly Willy_wonka_008.

First thing I did was to Re do a patch I did way back when I first got the car, now that I've gotten more experianced with metal work I was able to Re make it much much better!

Next on the list of to do's after the rear patch (see above)was to finally weld in the equal link boxes. Unfortunately I didn't take any photos of that process. Once that was completed I was able make and weld the final brace.

And finally I was able to sort out how to latch the trunk using the original latch, since I've either misplaced or thrown out the org brace that had the striker mounted to it when I cut it out when I decided to run the fuel fill in the rear panel.

Continuing on... Since I was on a roll, with some renewed interest in the project I decided that I would manually strip every panel, to make sure that I didn't miss any rusty areas, since once I've blasted i wouldn't have the window to bring it back home to repair. I also decided to test fit some new frp and carbon panels.
