After stripping its hammer out the dents, followed by the base layer of filler. I wanna point out that the better job of hammering out the dents the less filler you have which is the primary goal. I realize this roof looks bad but there is very sliver thin areas of filler here. After that epoxy prime followed by standard primer.

This paves the way to about a dozen additional rounds of blocking and sanding.

Aside from body work finishing up chassis items one at a time. I dont have the time, patience or money to try and get a driveshaft back to bare metal and have it look good, so painted works just fine for me.

This is one that is a first for me. Upon doing some window channel sand blasting i found the package tray area undeer the dutchman panel was pinholes from rust. After investigating and blowing out a bunch seat cushioning it appears some mice packing the space and it allowed moisture to hold itself againts the angle section of the package tray as it leads up to the ledge the dutchman panel is spot welded too, or in other words the small section where the rear window sits on. Truly amazing spot to have found rust. Not a great spot to have to fix, but im shocked how good the reproduction panel was made. Almost a perfect exact match to the original panel. Sometimes these cars can throw you a real suprise during restoration.

Between the last 2 weekends painted some chassis parts along with some engine pieces. Did some rear end factory paint marks.
