Repaired front fenders and got the hood cleaned up and primed. Starting to understand the history of the front end. Pretty sure this bug was hit in the front right a really long time ago based on the fact that the passenger side front fender is really old, but certainly not original. From my stand point that's good news though because this car lived most of it's life after that so she must have recovered well.

- Welded the hood chrome attachment holes. I like that look besides the fact that they let water in.
- Purchased some Eastwood rubberized rust encapsulator for the inside of the fenders and wheel wells. I'll spray that in before final paint, but fenders are ready for it.
- Hood looks good, but it's pretty lumpy. I'll probably replace it at some point. Fine for now.
