Well I did body work from 8:30-3, damn I'm tired, but body work is almost done. I didn't know how many dents my car had till now[:@]









Tomorrow I will finish sanding, take the fog lights off, and I hope to put coat one on at 12am lol

I still think the car would look good with the impact trips left off and the grooves filled in.....but that would be a butt load and a half of work. What is scribbled on the window? "Not abad day?" How much more sandingdoyouhave? Did you play cranium when you stopped for the day? j/k Keep up the good work and updates.

That was to fill all the luggage rack holes, and the ford emblem holes(tack weld/grind)and match the paint(since he didn't want to use factory color that I have a quote for). I think it would have been cheaper if I didn't have to drive the car, then I could take the lid off and hand it too him. For some reason people out here cut the price, don't know why??

The bumpers wont blend in right (if you look)

And no I didn't play that game

I have to finish sanding the other side where the bondo is, than sand the whole car down with 180 (right now it was sanded with 60[:-])
