Tartra Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 So I've been told by a few people to put some more photos up so 3 panel beaters later, finally found one who could do actually panel beat not fit panels Has been one massive headache but finally some progress. My boot floor, you can infact see my petrol tank through the rust the rust at the back of my boot after they panel beated it, and coated it with some black stuffs Rust in the back rear window after Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tartra Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 The drivers foot well had some pin holes in it After Rust in the back air vent(drivers side), also found some rust on the inner skin of the air vent Passenger side. Choose to delete the vents themselves and keep the holes for the vent to bolt back onto. they did nothing but cause a draft the rear of the car.

Tartra Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 The doors are currently on the move at the panel beaters. Just dropped the hinges and chrome off so they can line them all up correctly and get them straight. Then onto the bonnet and boot and then on to be painted. then attempt to put it back together which should be amusing. Been so long I've forgotten how too haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
