BUILD>> FREDDY THE GM POWERED S14 PT.1

I know this may be old news to some of you locals, but for the sake of this being my first blog I found it worth posting.  I want to touch on my favorite piece of the entire build, up to this point.  It was really a challenge for my skills as an amateur fabricator.  I had never mig welded stainless or really attempted to much sheet metal work up until this point.  This is my over the radiator air intake.  What may seem like a simple process of building an intake took several steps that I will have to post later.  Steps such as building a custom radiator support that was .75" lower than the factory.  As well as restructuring the hood so that the intake could tuck up inside it.

Here it is in the very beginning stages.
