Panel Replacement Redux
My old original HUP clip headlamp panel was the only unmangled piece on the whole clip. Coming from Manitoba, the panel was in fairly good shape - except for the holes drilled for snow plow lighting etc...
Bob, Grant and I drilled out the welds and removed the panel. We did the same to the damaged panel. Grant sandblasted (in January no less!) the panel and a few other CMP items. The donor panel's excess holes were welded up and then was welded into place - Bob made sure that it was not ever coming out again... All told, we made good progress with the clip. Next step - attach new wheel well panels and the pax side kick panel. Next trip to the barn will have to be a "Bob" day, so that we can find the parts necessary for the reassembly job. Soon, we hope, we can have "Grant" days - providing he finds his "good shape" CMP...
