Here is my latest progress on the 550 EV. I have shaped the 1inch tube around the back of the seats. The photo doesn't really show the curve across the back. Its an important piece as it sets the shape for the back panels. I still need to grind off the welds. I have made some more progress on the inner bonnet panels. These are also important because they form the seat for the bonnet to sit when closed. I still have some adjustments to make so they fit together neatly. But you get the idea. I also need to create the panel in front of the dash. I need to make it deep enough to support the wind deflector. I have also worked on the dash area around the dials. I haven't included photos and it is causing me a bit of grief. I am trying to shape it in plywood so I have a base to staple the vinyl onto. but its a complex shape. You can see the passenger side dash pad in some of the photos. It was relatively simple compared to the driver side with the dials. I will keep pressing forward and see where it leads me.
