The grill surround needs a ton of work to fit properly. I'm
still not sure if I'm going to use it or just use it as a
buck.
I really want a steel shell. A metal shaper with plastic parts
just doesn't seem right.
After I got the bumper cutout welded up and metal finished,
I fitted up the front cab corner and welded it in.
I also had to make a new hood catch. I still need to
metal finish the weld.
Next I will fabricate the pieces needed to reshape and
restore the rest of the wheel arch.

Testing the fender fitment.
I don't like the way Ford fit the fenders with the arch.
Looks like a mistake, but all of these COEs are like this.
I will make a new section and reshape the arch to fit the
fender.
