Tim, they were removed and replaced with some donor ones, bit of cutting and welding but is worth it in the end.. hardest part is finding the donor parts..

Nice... did you have a whole replacement for the bottom of the nose? Or was it something you hammered into shape?

Same question for the rounded dorner piece that you welded on :)

headley, all the front was cut and weld and the donor pieces as well... any section that had rust was replaced or fabricated, dont want it coming back in a hurry thats for sure.. so bit of work gone into it to get it how it should be.. worth it in the end tho...
