I needed a clean method of holding 1/8" Lexan plastic to the rear doors in place of the window glass. What I came up with is cutting off some sheetmetal from an old Chevy truck fender and welding in full-circumference tabs on the inside edge of the rear door post. The Lexan will mount flush with the outer sheetmetal with countersunk screws. I apologize for the low quality pics. My garage lighting took a dump on me
Very fun thread to read, thanks for taking the time to share your project here...eager to see more pics!

I gotta watch this project unfold! Excellent work thus far man.
I'm IN! subscribed.
Nice, I am looking forward to see more progress!
I was finally able to get a bit more done to the car, due to warmer weather in my neck of the woods. I have a tendency to hibernate during the winter lol! I finally finished the full-circumference tabs on the passenger side of the rear door. I still need to clean up a couple of welds, but it doesn't look too bad with it covered in primer. Was gonna work on the drivers side rear door, but I ran out of MIG wire. I'll get another spool tomorrow.
After some trimming, I was able to fit a set of 235/75/15 tires on the car. The car sure looks different with bigger wheels and tires on it.
What is the outside to outside spacing on the rear frame? Also, what are you going to be doing to keep the axle centered?

I've got more 2x3 steel tubing coming on Monday night. In the meantime, I'm gonna make preps on the car over the weekend to get it to fit properly. A bunch of near-future progress hinges on the frame rail installation.
It just keeps getting more awesomnesser
