well after finially fixing the dent in my fender i finially got around to fixing the dent in my tailgate, didnt come out as good as i wouldve liked but it is better than it was so im happy with it and like i always say - primer spots are better than a dent

Yup, primer better than that big old dent. It is so hard do make those areas look perfect. good job.

Looks like you can get a little lower with the dent with a hammer and dolly if you decide to operate again. Sure does look better though. My T gate needs a litte TLC itself.

Nice job Steven, I can't wait to catch you someday! Bakersfield doesn't seem that big.

May have my truck back in my shop in a week or so, back from the paint shop.

texanidiot25 · 08-21-2007, 05:09 AM

Backed it into a pole?

Way better looking, when are you gonna paint the whole thing?

wibilly · 08-21-2007, 11:22 AM

it's amazing how easy they bend till you try to straighten them. i have tried pulling dents in them and the just don't come easy. i not started collecting srraight ones with rusty bottoms to experiment with sectioning good tops to good bottoms when time permits
