Well, there is something there that looks like a blue jean clad leg bent at the knee with the foot all kind of mangled up. Probably nothing, but I prefer the severed leg theory. But seriously, would you happen to have a photo of the inside of one of your fenders while it is off the car. I am replacing the lower part of the front fender and the lower part of the inner braceon my 65(there is a photo of it in the thread tonight about the original 66 fender) and the replacement parts do not have the bottom bolt hole in them. I was hoping someone could post a photo of the lower brace and how it all looks.

Just as a tip, With all the great work you have done so far don't forget to paint or replace the crank pulley, It kinda stands out as the sore thumb of your project.

That's why you post here.
Maybe someone will see something you overlooked or something.

The other day I was finished polishing the Mustang and stood back to look at it when the girlfriend came outside and said "Looks good, Where are the mirror's?". I just growled at her went in the garage and closed the door behind me.
Here I was all proud of my work and she comes out and sees something I overlooked. [sm=headbang.gif]
