Today I worked on the rear quarter panel again. More putty, block sanding, guide coat, more putty, block sanding some more then primer. It will be worth it in the end.
In between putty drying times I pulled the dent on my front rt fender. Putty, block sanding, guide coat, more putty, block sanding then primer.
Cut out a rusted spot on the rear wheel housing (fender attach point). I welded new sheet-metal in as required. After I finished welding I began working on the rear quarter panel. I applied some USC Icing Polyester Finishing Putty and began the tedious sanding/blocking process.
I also pulled a dent I had on the LT front fender.
Ran out of "Icing" so I must let her rest for the night. The goal is to have her finished for the Texas Classic in April.
My Dad sent me a pkg. I have been after this cooler for years. It has been in the family since the '60s. This will be my next project after I get done with the car.
I finished the front wheelhouse. Now work starts on the rear of the car.
I started to work on the rear quarter panel. It was heavy with body filler. It was over 1 inch thick in some places. Once I got all the body filler off it was obvious that there was a major dent in the quarter panel. My work colleague let me borrow a H & S 5500 UNI-SPOTTER STINGER STUD WELDER-Dent Puller which my son helped me utilized to pull the panel back out. Really happy with the results.
