Bondo update..

[Paul]

after sanding both arms and one leg off it's starting to get smooth.

hats off to the pros, there is no way I could make money doing it-

it's taking for ever!

spent the last couple afternoons building the inner roof support,

used 1/2" square tube, bend fit weld bend fit weld bend fit well you get the picture.

fired the bitch up and pulled it out of the shop to blow the dust out of it

and took a few pictures while she warmed up..

put it back in the shop and come out to hear

every car alarm in a two block radius crying for mommy.

i could see blue metalflake and scallops! i would go radirs all the way. Nate

I love bondo work. Getting a body level in metal is impressive and good, but i've always enjoyed doing that fine-tuning with bondo... feather-edging is a real skill...

[choprods]

Paul - it looks like you are doing a good job- thats not much filler for an OLD car to have on it- Keep up the good work man!

[Suede]

Pretty awesome car, cant wait to see how it looks when yer finnished with it.

[FRKSHO1]

that car is top notch, you are over working your body filler. bondo is a trade name we pros call it plastic filler. anyway if you would like some helpful hints to make the job easier send me a reply and i will go into detail. i think bright orange with gold pearl overlay and green flames with violet highlights would do it justice. once again sweet carrr.

keep the flat black! the rod is tight!

[Radshit]

I vote for deep Blue Candy!.....nice ride.....

[Machinos]

ooh man I love that car

If it were mine, I'd paint it super-ultra-blackhole black.

[autocol]

i don't give a toss what colour you paint it...

it's the coolest car on the HAMB.

[Humboldt Cat]

Yer ride gets to lookin' better all the time! I especially like yer filler work on the back rear panel and the top o' the grille housing. Is that Caddy tilt steering, btw? Looks like one I've got in my truck. Anyway: nice work!

[JB37FORD]

That car is Awesome!!good job!!
