Re: from then to now... body work
 

looks like you did a good job, just make sure you finish it, and dont be one of thsoe ricers who drive around in a primer car, remember, primer is not a color ;)

Re: from then to now... body work
 

itll stay primer for a while. i dont think it looks bad at all. Ill paint it whenever i get a chance to go stay with my uncle

Re: from then to now... body work

Re: from then to now... body work
 

i hear ya, i mean, i see guys all the time drivin around in primer cars for like a year or so...damn paint that ---- ::) but the body looks good, you did a good smoothing job on it

Re: from then to now... body work
 

Looks like a bad spot to have to ---- with. How much bondo did you end up using?

Re: from then to now... body work
 

not too much bondo at all. First I pulled the interior panel and had my friend finesse the majoring out with his feet. Then i sanded to metal. Following that was stud welder madness. used like 100ish. then grind and sand. then bondo, then cheeze grater, then sanding more, the wetsand the back then primer.

Looks pretty good...just do yourself a favor though and try and move that can back under your bumper a little farther ;)

Re: from then to now... body work
 

who needs a muffler? straight 3 inch SS exhaust

Re: from then to now... body work
 

If you wait to paint that it will rust through. I promise.

Re: from then to now... body work
 

what will rust?

Re: from then to now... body work
 

The entire area that you primered. Primer absorbs moisture and will rust that area.

Re: from then to now... body work
 

did you pop out the dent at all or did you just mud the ---- out of it, lol. i've got a hit like that on my hatch, and one of my buddies is telling me i should just cut a weld a new quarter peice :3
