BumbleBee's Front End

BumbleBee's Front End Front end pieces removed to repair wheel wells and paint the frame. With the parts removed a lot of work has been found. Left front fender. Full of holes but the badge and chrome still intacked. I found a pathc panel for the large hole near the chrome but no luck near the marker light. Looks like a new fender for this one.

BumbleBee's Front End I could try my own patch for this spot. Weld in a small piesce of steel???

Also found a dent under the head light bucket filled with bondo. Guess i could try to patch up the left front fender. Worst case is a new (aftermarket fender).

This is a close up of the large hole in the left fron fender. Notice the inner fender bracing is also rotted away. Lots of work to make it look right.

BumbleBee's Front End This bolt hole is completely broken. Broken chin spoiler. This is one reason I like to back into parking spots. Low clearance cars tend to rub on the parking stops.
