I went back and read the whole thread from the beginning and saw that. The SVO has been sitting for a while…good to see some progress.

getting close to having the main body ready for the first round of primer
So if anyone can make those headlights look good, you can. Just don’t know what they were thinking with those SVO lights.

I love the set back head light. SVO is the only Fox I’ll ever own. Luckily own one of each year (all four).
Did a few rust repairs on the hatch. Got the doors gapped to 3/16 same with the bodyworked fenders. Now blocking panel to panel.
Time for my favorite thing……
The header panel which I posted a pic earlier in the thread was busted up and in pieces. So I took 3 busted ones and made a good one. Then molded it and made a few in fiberglass. I attached only the ends of the bumper cover and lined it up to the fenders before putting in the rivets to attach the cover to the header panel. Now im bodyworking the bumper to the fenders. Also standing sanding sail panels and spats for primer
The front bumper was a huge project in itself. But is now good. Sail panels and spats also in primer
Fixed a few rust spots mainly around the toe board. Sanded and prepped the inside and layed the epoxy to it.
Right after he wet sands and buffs that floor pan
Don't forget the underside of that hood too!

The SVO has been sitting and curing the bodywork out. But I got the hatch out to start working on a better bi plane wing and spoiler setup. Its going to be a one piece with no exposed hardware or holes. Should be fun
Spoiler work.
Once I get this spoiler finished and fitting perfect with the bi plane wing. Im going to make a mold and pop one out in carbon.
