Measure Twice, Cut Ten Times? The Telstar 2 Roof Swap | 1961 Ford Thunderbird

The roof swap on the 1961 Ford Thunderbird continues, and it is fighting us every step of the way! In Episode 2 of the "Telstar 2" build, we dive deep into the tedious process of trimming, planning, and test-fitting this massive piece of metal. Custom metal fabrication is rarely a simple bolt-on job, and getting this roof to sit perfectly on the '61 T-Bird requires a ton of patience. We’re taking you behind the scenes to show you exactly what goes into planning a major structural modification like this. From finding the right cut lines to dealing with unexpected fitment issues, we’re showing the good, the bad, and the ugly of custom car building.
