Well today wasnt quite an eventful day. I did get some parts in, but they are going to take a bit of planning to sort out.. The bumper in the rendition is a bit harder to do than photoshop'ing it in. The shape of the bumper, along with relief cuts, are going to make it alot more difficult than flipping them upside down and trimming them. I knew my luck had to change some where. LOL

I did get my early series cal vent in, and it is going to fit the build perfectly... I did get lucky and found a quality piece that needs very little to be a perfect piece.. It looks so much better than the hokey aluminum framed screen.

Original to the 66 Volvo



The earlier much more stylish Cal Vent. I have a nice hood pin set coming from HoodPins here, and think they will look alot better.. I need to run hood pins, due the the latching procedure on this car.





Here are the bumpers I had recieved today.. These are original early style bull horn bumpers, that appear in the rendition flipped upside down. It seems easy, but in the pictures below you will see what is going on.. I dont have the horizontal bar yet, so I cant go too much further with the alterations. I hope the chroming shop can take care of my handy work.
