pics of body progress
Got my bondo done and epoxy primer done,she is as straight as my free time and little money can afford!!! cant wait to paint it,booth should be available some time this week in the eve.need to order more pearl though. I am reminded just how much talent and skill my buddy has, its cool to see how much faster and better he can do this than a wrench like me.

Re: pics of body progress
Dude, the bodywork looks great. I get to see alot of it on a daily basis. When are you gonna have it painted? I would suggest putting it out in the sun for a couple of weeks and let the sun cure the primer. That will help keep it from "pulling the paint" into the bodywork." Can't wait to see more.

Re: pics of body progress
Yeah I had a heck of a time getting all the doors, and body aligned . But little by little it all works out. Did you get after market doors?
