Default pics of my car

got some body work fixed new wheels and fresh paint put on the car in the past month. definately looks miles better then it did. now it just seems that it makes the interior look even worse

posting before and after pics so you guys have an idea of how bad the body was. wasn't one bad accident. the previous owner just got bumped into a couple times while the car was parked. the door is the worst and that happened from the wife moving the plow truck in the driveway. if you click on the pics you can view them larger.

Looks good. How far did you tear it apart to paint it?

not to far since the paint is the same as the stock color it came with. i did take off the mirrors, headlights, taillights, antenna, window trim, wipers, and door trim.. i know some people take off panels and all the crap for a paintjob sometimes but the whole frame and stuff is still in really good shape and all the jams still look really good.

I was just wondering about the bumpers, I would be worried about it lifting in the joints. Reason I asked is b/c I am going to tear mine down this winter for paint, but I am changing colors, so down to the frame we go.

Looking good. Tell your wife to leave the plow trucks alone.

I am tearing my down for a winter repaint. Burt Orange.
