Did some patching on radiator support.
Sure wish I was a rich man, then I could afford to buy new stuff instead of patching, but anyway been putting off this little job for awhile so I thought I'd start patching.
Took approximately 6 Hrs. to get this far. Here's the pics. |

Re: Did some patching on radiator support.
Really nice, did you take if from a donor rad support or fab it up from scratch?
Once it's painted, no one will ever know. |

Re: Did some patching on radiator support.
I did the same thing Friday night from scratch, little quicky took about 45 minutes. Was a little soft and I was selling to a board member. Yours looks really good.
