    skinned the bottom of the outer skin on the deck lid and sectioned the shell 3 in. And fixed some poor patch work. Built a nicer filler for bumper and frenched the taillight to match the other side.

    nice work bro, always cool to save a custom. Ass hat geeks with no insurance should be tarred and feathered. ~sololobo~

    Very nice metalwork on that repair. I like the new skirt shape too. Looks like it was a very nice car before it was hit as well. Would like to see some overall pics of it.
     
  14. Glad it's getting fixed, looks like the right way as well. Nice work!

    NIce work. Let me guess, the uninsured driver was allowed to leave the scene with no issues, right? I have a buddy that got his OT Trans Am totaled by an uninsured driver in an F150 and not only did the guy get off with just a ticket they let him drive the wrecked POS from the scene

    You couldn't be fixing that car for a better dude, the guy that owns that car is my buddy from the Army, he's been in Texas for rehab for a deployment injury and has had horrible luck with uninsured drivers smashing his stuff. He has a T that got smashed too and he's been trying to fix that one on his own, glad to see this one's coming together nice!
