Default Wall Hanger

20151202_103741.jpgHello all. Been a long time lurker. Finally have a couple pics to show.
I am in the UVU street rod technologies program.
Enjoying it very much.
Aluminum shaping project started out to be a mailbox but was afraid it might not last on the street, so just decided to make two wall hangers.
Anyway here are the pics

20151208_123715.jpgOriginally the hood was going to open to insert the mail so I had to build a hood filler and weld into place.
Some metal finishing and sanding and it's ready for polishing.
