Exclamation 1969 Mustang Coupe Bodywork Help

I have posted on here about a few problem I have had.

This time, i need to know some opinions.

Would it be better/more affordable for me to do the body work on my Mustang myself or to send it to a body shop to have everything lined back up?
The parts are in good shape they just need to be aligned correctly and remounted.


Opinions?

By lined back up, do you mean just setting the gaps? Or do you mean take the panels off, do the body work and then put them back on? Is there body work to be done?

Well there is only a small amount of body work that needs to be done to the left rear fender, but other than that it is all good.

I just need to fix the gaps in between the pieces.... Like, between the fender and the hood and such.

If your able, do it yourself. It can cost a lot to have anything done professionally.
